A piston of cross-sectional area "a" is used in a hydraulic press to exert a small force of magnitude "f" on the enclosed liquid. A connecting pipe leads to a larger piston of cross-sectional area A. (a) what force magnitude F will the larger piston sustain without moving? (b) If the piston...
The mean distance of Mars from the Sun is 1.52 time that of Earth from the Sun. From Kepler's law of periods, calculate the number of years required for Mars to make one revolution around the Sun; compare your answer with the value given in Appendix C.
Kepler's Law of periods is: T^2=[4 x...
I am having trouble solving this problem:
Three point particles are fixed in position in an xy plane. Two of them, particle A of mass 6.00g and particle B of mass 12.0g, are shown in Fig12-38 (the figure has A at the origin and B 30 degrees above the negative side of the x-axis) with a...
