Answer:

180 cm^2

Explanation:

We are given that

Force F_1=500 N

A_1=3cm^2

F_2=30000 N

We have to find the area of the output piston that crushes the trash

Input  piston=Output piston

We know that

Pressure=\frac{force}{Area}

Using the formula

\frac{F_1}{A_1}=\frac{F_2}{A_2}

Substitute the values

\frac{500}{3}=\frac{30000}{A_2}

A_2=\frac{30000\times 3}{500}

A_2=180 cm^2

Hence, the area of the output piston that crushes the trash 180 square cm

A 4.00-kg box sits atop a 10.0-kg box on a horizontal table. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the two boxes and betwe
natta225 [31]
First, we have to calculate the normal forces on different surfaces.The normal force on the 4.00 kg, N1 = (4)(9.8) = 39.2 N. The normal force on the 10.0 kg, N2 = (14)(9.8) = 137.2 N. Looking at the 10.0 kg block, the static forces that counteract the pulling force equals the sum of the friction from the two surfaces. Fc = N1 * 0.80 + N2 * 0.80 = 141.12 N. Since the counter force is less than the pulling force, the blocks start to move and hence, kinetic frictions are considered.


Therefore, f1 = uk * N1 = (0.60)(39.2) = 23.52 N.

A 20.0 kg curling stone travels 30.0 m along the ice surface. If the frictional force is 10.0 N, the thermal energy produced is
evablogger [386]
The thermal energy is where the work of friction comes from.  That is what stops it eventually.  In this case a counter force of 10N is applied over the distance of 30.0m.  The energy is given by Force*Distance.  Here this is 300J.  This friction work is the thermal energy.

A truck with a heavy load has a total mass of 7100 kg. It is climbing a 15∘ incline at a steady 15 m/s when, unfortunately, the
Andrej [43]

Answer:

The load has a mass of 2636.8 kg

Explanation:

Step 1 : Data given

Mass of the truck = 7100 kg

Angle = 15°

velocity = 15m/s

Acceleration = 1.5 m/s²

Mass of truck = m1 kg

Mass of load = m2 kg

Thrust from engine = T

Step 2:

⇒ Before the load falls off, thrust (T) balances the component of total weight downhill:

T = (m1+m2)*g*sinθ

⇒ After the load falls off, thrust (T) remains the same but downhill component of weight becomes  m1*gsinθ .

Resultant force on truck is F = T – m1*gsinθ  

F causes the acceleration of the truck: F= m*a

This gives the equation:

T – m1*gsinθ = m1*a  

T = m1(a + gsinθ)

Combining both equations gives:

(m1+m2)*g*sinθ = m1*(a + gsinθ)

m1*g*sinθ + m2*g*sinθ =m1*a + m1*g*sinθ

m2*g*sinθ = m1*a

Since m1+m2 = 7100kg, m1= 7100 – m2. This we can plug into the previous equation:

m2*g*sinθ = (7100 – m2)*a

m2*g*sinθ = 7100a – m2a

m2*gsinθ + m2*a = 7100a

m2* (gsinθ + a) = 7100a

m2 = 7100a/(gsinθ  + a)

m2 = (7100 * 1.5) / (9.8sin(15°) + 1.5)

m2 = 2636.8 kg

The load has a mass of 2636.8 kg

Platinum has a density of 21.4 g/cm3. if thieves were to steal platinum from a bank using a small truck with a maximum payload o
slega [8]
We will convert the 1dm3 in terms of cm3 as follows:

1dm^3 = (10 cm)^3
= 1000 cm^3

The mass of platinum is equal to 900 lb. 
Then we will convert the mass in terms of grams as follows:
1 lb = 453.6 g
900 = 900 x 453.6 g
= 408240 g

Then density of platinum is equal to 21.4 g/cm^3 
We will calculate the volume of platinum in mass 408240 g as follows:
Volume of platinum = mass of platinum / density of platinum
= 408240 g / 21.4 g/cm^3 
= 19076.6 cm^3  

The total volume of platinum is 19076.6 cm^3
The volume of platinum in 1 L bar is 1000cm^3
So, to calculate the number of bars we will use the formula as follows;
Number of bars = volume of platinum available / volume of platinum required in 1 L bar
= 19076.6 cm^3 / 1000 cm^3
= 19
So, the number of bars are 19.

A car wheel turns through 277° in 10.7 s. Calculate the angular speed of the wheel.
slava [35]

Answer:

The angular speed of the wheel is 0.452 rad/s

Explanation:

The angle through which the car wheel turns, Δθ = 277° = 277/360 × 2·π radian

The time it takes for the car wheel to turn, Δt = 10.7 s

The angular speed, ω is given by the following equation;

Angular \ speed = \dfrac{Change \ in \ angular \ rotation }{Change \ in \ time} = \dfrac{\Delta \theta}{\Delta t}

Substituting the known values for Δθ and Δt gives;

Angular \ speed = \dfrac{\dfrac{277 ^{\circ}}{360 ^{\circ }  }  \times 2 \times \pi \ radian}{10.7 \ seconds} \approx 0.452 \ rad/s

The angular speed of the wheel = 0.452 rad/s
