Chapter 10: Q14P (page 260)

(II) The maximum gauge pressure in a hydraulic lift is 17.0 atm. What is the largest-size vehicle (kg) it can lift if the diameter of the output line is 25.5 cm?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The hydraulic lift can lift a vehicle of a maximum weight of 8963.3 kg.

Step by step solution

01

Step-1:-Definition of pressure

The pressure is represented as the quantity which indicates the correlation between the force acting on a substance in a unit area.

02

 Given the data

The maximum gauge pressure is P = 17atm.

The diameter of the output line d = 25.5 cm.

03

Step-3:-Calculation of the mass of the vehicle


The mass of the vehicle is calculated as;

F = PA

mg =PA


Here A is the area and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

Substitute the values in the above relation.


The maximum weight of the vehicle that the hydraulic lift can lift is 8963.3 kg.

Question: You are watering your lawn with a hose when you put your finger over the hose opening to increase the distance the water reaches. If you are holding the hose horizontally, and the distance the water reaches increases by a factor of 4, what fraction of the hose opening did you block?

Why does the stream of water from a faucet become narrower as it falls (Fig. 10鈥�43)?

FIGURE 10鈥�43 Question 12. Water coming from a faucet.

Water at a gauge pressure of \({\bf{3}}{\bf{.8}}\;{\bf{atm}}\) at street level flows into an office building at a speed of \({\bf{0}}{\bf{.78}}\;{\bf{m/s}}\) through a pipe \({\bf{5}}{\bf{.0}}\;{\bf{cm}}\)in diameter. The pipe tapers down to \({\bf{2}}{\bf{.8}}\;{\bf{cm}}\) in diameter by the top floor, \({\bf{16}}\;{\bf{m}}\) above (Fig. 10鈥�53), where the faucet has been left open. Calculate the flow velocity and the gauge pressure in the pipe on the top floor. Assume no branch pipes and ignore viscosity.

A 3.2-N force is applied to the plunger of a hypodermic needle. If the diameter of the plunger is 1.3 cm and that of the needle is 0.20 mm, (a) with what force does the fluid leave the needle? (b) What force on the plunger would be needed to push fluid into a vein where the gauge pressure is 75 mm-Hg? Answer for the instant just before the fluid starts to move.
