A 14,912-N car is raised using a hydraulic lift, which consists of a U-tube with arms of unequal areas, filled with incompressible oil and capped at both ends with tight-fitting pistons. The wider arm of the U-tube has a radius of 16 cm and the narrower arm has a radius of 8 cm. The car rests on the piston on the wider arm of the U-tube. The pistons are initially at the same level. What is the initial force in N that must be applied to the smaller piston in order to start lifting the car? (For purposes of this problem, you can neglect the weight of the pistons.)

Fluid Pressure

The term fluid pressure is coined as, the measurement of the force per unit area of a given surface of a closed container. It is a branch of physics that helps to study the properties of fluid under various conditions of force.

Gauge Pressure

Pressure is the physical force acting per unit area on a body; the applied force is perpendicular to the surface of the object per unit area. The air around us at sea level exerts a pressure (atmospheric pressure) of about 14.7 psi but this doesn’t seem to bother anyone as the bodily fluids are constantly pushing outwards with the same force but if one swims down into the ocean a few feet below the surface one can notice the difference, there is increased pressure on the eardrum, this is due to an increase in hydrostatic pressure.

Question

A 14,912-N car is raised using a hydraulic lift, which consists of a U-tube with arms of unequal
areas, filled with incompressible oil and capped at both ends with tight-fitting pistons. The wider
arm of the U-tube has a radius of 16 cm and the narrower arm has a radius of 8 cm. The car rests
on the piston on the wider arm of the U-tube. The pistons are initially at the same level. What is
the initial force in N that must be applied to the smaller piston in order to start lifting the car? (For
purposes of this problem, you can neglect the weight of the pistons.)
Express answer as a whole number.

A tank holds a large amount of water. A pipe is connected to the tank at the upper end and is open to the air at the lower end (see figure).The upper end of the pipe is h1 = 1.90-m above the ground. The lower end of the pipe is h2 = 0.570-m above the ground. The water at the upper end of the pipe has a speed of 0.640 m/s. The water at the lower end of the pipe has a speed of 8.50 m/s.What is the pressure in the water in the pipe at the upper end of the pipe?
On another planet that you are exploring, a large tank is open to the atmosphere and contains ethanol. A horizontal pipe of cross-sectional area 7.0×10−4m27.0×10−4m2 has one end inserted into the tank just above the bottom of the tank. The other end of the pipe is open to the atmosphere. The viscosity of the ethanol can be neglected. You measure the volume flow rate of the ethanol from the tank as a function of the depth hh of the ethanol in the tank. If you graph the volume flow rate squared as a function of hh, your data lie close to a straight line that has slope 2.09×10−5m5/s22.09×10−5m5/s2. What is the value of gg, the acceleration of a free-falling object at the surface of the planet? Express your answer with the appropriate units.

A sump pump (used to drain water from the basement of houses built below the water table) is draining a flooded basement at the rate of 0.700 L/s, with an output pressure of 2.00 x 105 N/m². You may neglect frictional losses in both parts of this problem. (a) The water enters a hose with a 3.00 cm inside diameter and rises 3.00 m above the pump. What is its pressure (in N/m²) at this point? N/m² (b) The hose goes over the foundation wall, losing 1.70 m in height, and widens to 4.00 cm diameter. What is the pressure now (in N/m²)? N/m²
A spring is attached to the bottom of an empty swimming pool, with the axis of the spring oriented vertically. An 25.0-kg hollow block of wood (p = 840 kg/m³) is fixed to the top of the spring and compresses it. Then the pool is filled with water, completely covering the block. The spring is now observed to be stretched twice as much as it had been compressed. Determine the percentage of the block's total volume that is hollow. Ignore any air in the hollow space.
