A mechanic uses a hydraulic car jack to lift the front end of a car to change the oil. The jack used exerts 8,915 N of force fro

m the larger piston. To pump the jack, 444 N of force is exerted on the small piston, which has an area of 3.14 cm2. What is the area of the large piston?

Answer:

63.05 cm²

Explanation:

We use Pascals law to find the answer.

The law says that in an incomprehensible , non-viscous fluid the pressure applied will transmit through out the fluid without a change.

So, Pressure on larger piston = pressure on smaller piston.

      \frac{444}{3.14}  = \frac{8915}{A}

                                     A ≅ 63.05 cm²

Derive an expression for the gravitational potential energy of a system consisting of Earth and a brick of mass m placed at Eart
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

The gravitational potential energy of a system is -3/2 (GmE)(m)/RE

Explanation:

Given

mE = Mass of Earth

RE = Radius of Earth

G = Gravitational Constant

Let p = The mass density of the earth is

p = M/(4/3πRE³)

p = 3M/4πRE³

Taking for instance,a very thin spherical shell in the earth;

Let r = radius

dr = thickness

Its volume is given by;

dV = 4πr²dr

Since mass = density* volume;

It's mass would be

dm = p * 4πr²dr

The gravitational potential at the center due would equal;

dV = -Gdm/r

Substitute (p * 4πr²dr) for dm

dV = -G(p * 4πr²dr)/r

dV = -G(p * 4πrdr)

The gravitational potential at the center of the earth would equal;

V = ∫dV

V = ∫ -G(p * 4πrdr) {RE,0}

V = -4πGp∫rdr {RE,0}

V = -4πGp (r²/2) {RE,0}

V = -4πGp{RE²/2)

V = -4Gπ * 3M/4πRE³ * RE²/2

V = -3/2 GmE/RE

The gravitational potential energy of the system of the earth and the brick at the center equals

U = Vm

U = -3/2 GmE/RE * m

U = -3/2 (GmE)(m)/RE

A rectangular loop of wire of width 10 cm and length 20 cm has a current of 2.5 A flowing through it. Two sides of the loop are
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

(a) 0.05 Am^2

(b) 1.85 x 10^-3 Nm

Explanation:

width, w = 10 cm = 0.1 m

length, l = 20 cm = 0.2 m

Current, i = 2.5 A

Magnetic field, B = 0.037 T

(A) Magnetic moment, M = i x A

Where, A be the area of loop

M = 2.5 x 0.1 x 0.2 = 0.05 Am^2

(B) Torque, τ = M x B x Sin 90

τ = 0.05 x 0.037 x 1

τ = 1.85 x 10^-3 Nm

A food department is kept at â12°c by a refrigerator in an environment at 30°c. the total heat gain to the food department is
slava [35]

As per energy conservation in the reversible engine we can say

Q_2 + W = Q_1

here we know that

Q_2 = 3300 kJ/h

Q_1 = 4800 kJ/h

now from above equation

3300 + W = 4800

W = 1500 kJ/h

now we can convert it into kW

W = 1500\times \frac{kJ}{3600s}

W = 0.42 kW

so above is the power input to the refrigerator

now to find COP we know that

COP = \frac{Q_2}{W}

COP = \frac{3300}{1500} = 2.2

so COP of refrigerator is 2.2
