Answer:

The force applied on the big piston is 1306.67 N

Explanation:

Given;

force applied on small piston, F₁ = 200 N

diameter of the small piston, d₁ = 4.37 cm

radius of the small piston, r₁ = d₁/2 = 2.185 cm

Area of the small piston, A₁ = πr₁² = π(2.185 cm)² = 15 cm²

Area of the big piston, A₂ = 98 cm²

The pressure of the piston is given by;

$P = \frac{F}{A} \\\\\frac{F_1}{A_1} = \frac{F_2}{A_2}\\\\ F_2 = \frac{F_1A_2}{A_1}$

Where;

F₂ is the force on big piston

$F_2 = \frac{200*98}{15} \\\\F_2 = 1306.67 \ N$

Therefore, the force applied on the big piston is 1306.67 N

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

i)Two spheres hanging from nylon threads attract each other because either the two spheres are charged with opposite sign or only one of the spheres is charge so the other would be charge by induction of the charged sphere and hence attract each other.

ii)However, when they are touched the charges will be rearranged among the two sphere such that the two sphere have exact same magnitude and sign of charge and now they will repel each other or the magnitude of charges on the two spheres become zero and they neither attract or repel each other.

A rock is thrown straight up with an initial velocity of 19.6 m/s. What time interval elapses between the rock’s being thrown an

inna [77]

Answer:

It will take 4 sec rock to comes its original point

Explanation:

It is given that the rock comes to its original point

So displacement S = 0 m

Initial velocity u = 19.6 m/sec

Acceleration due to gravity $g=9.8m/sec^2$

According to second equation of motion $h=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2$

$0=19.6\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.8t^2$

$19.6=4.9t$

t = 4 sec

A compact, dense object with a mass of 2.90 kg is attached to a spring and is able to oscillate horizontally with negligible fri

enot [183]

(a) 80 N/m

The spring constant can be found by using Hooke's law:

$F=kx$

where

F is the force on the spring

k is the spring constant

x is the displacement of the spring relative to the equilibrium position

At the beginning, we have

F = 16.0 N is the force applied

x = 0.200 m is the displacement from the equilibrium position

Solving the formula for k, we find

$k=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{16.0 N}{0.200 m}=80 N/m$

(b) 0.84 Hz

The frequency of oscillation of the system is given by

$f=\frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$

where

k = 80 N/m is the spring constant

m = 2.90 kg is the mass attached to the spring

Substituting the numbers into the formula, we find

$f=\frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{80 N/m}{2.90 kg}}=0.84 Hz$

(c) 1.05 m/s

The maximum speed of a spring-mass system is given by

$v=\omega A$

where

$\omega$ is the angular frequency

A is the amplitude of the motion

For this system, we have

$\omega=2\pi f=2\pi (0.84 Hz)=5.25 rad/s$

$A=0.200 m$ (the amplitude corresponds to the maximum displacement, so it is equal to the initial displacement)

Substituting into the formula, we find the maximum speed:

$v=(5.25 rad/s)(0.200 m)=1.05 m/s$

(d) x = 0

The maximum speed in a simple harmonic motion occurs at the equilibrium position. In fact, the total mechanical energy of the system is equal to the sum of the elastic potential energy (U) and the kinetic energy (K):

$E=U+K=\frac{1}{2}kx^2+\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where

k is the spring constant

x is the displacement

m is the mass

v is the speed

The mechanical energy E is constant: this means that when U increases, K decreases, and viceversa. Therefore, the maximum kinetic energy (and so the maximum speed) will occur when the elastic potential energy is minimum (zero), and this occurs when x=0.

(e) 5.51 m/s^2

In a simple harmonic motion, the maximum acceleration is given by

$a=\omega^2 A$

Using the numbers we calculated in part c):

$\omega=2\pi f=2\pi (0.84 Hz)=5.25 rad/s$

$A=0.200 m$

we find immediately the maximum acceleration:

$a=(5.25 rad/s)^2(0.200 m)=5.51 m/s^2$

(f) At the position of maximum displacement: $x=\pm 0.200 m$

According to Newton's second law, the acceleration is directly proportional to the force on the mass:

$a=\frac{F}{m}$

this means that the acceleration will be maximum when the force is maximum.

However, the force is given by Hooke's law:

$F=kx$

so, the force is maximum when the displacement x is maximum: so, the maximum acceleration occurs at the position of maximum displacement.

(g) 1.60 J

The total mechanical energy of the system can be found by calculating the kinetic energy of the system at the equilibrium position, where x=0 and so the elastic potential energy U is zero. So we have

$E=K=\frac{1}{2}mv_{max}^2$
