Gold can be hammered into decorative gold leaf, which is only 1.00E-07 m thick. If 1.50 troy ounce of gold is hammered into gold leaf, what is the area that can be covered when used for decoration? 1 troy ounce = 31.1 g, and the density of gold is 19.3 g/cm3.
A company has several sensors in storage silos to detect the total pressure in the silos to ensure the tanks will not leak. Each tank is designed to withstand a maximum total pressure of 5.7 atmospheres [atm]. An engineer wants to use one of the silos to store liquid nitric acid, which has a density of 97 pound-mass per cubic foot [lbm/ft3]. If the tank is filled to a depth of 90 feet [ft], how much surface pressure in units of atmospheres [atm] can be applied to the top of the liquid inside the tank without exceeding the maximum total pressure of the silo?
Water flows through a water hose at a rate of Q1 = 740 cm3/s, the diameter of the hose is d1 = 2.76 cm. A nozzle is attached to the water hose. The water leaves the nozzle at a velocity of v2 = 10.4 m/s. Enter an expression for the cross-sectional area of the hose, A1, in terms of its diameter, d1. Calculate the numerical value of A1, in square centimeters. Enter an expression for the speed of the water in the hose, v1, in terms of the volume flow rate Q1 and cross-sectional area A1. Calculate the speed of the water in the hose, v1 in meters per second. Enter an expression for the cross-sectional area of the nozzle, A2, in terms of v1, v2 and A1. Calculate the cross-sectional area of the nozzle, A2 in square centimeters.

Invalid path. The figure below shows the essential parts of a hydraulic brake system. The area of the piston in the master cylinder is 1.8 cm? and that of the piston in the brake cylinder is 6.4 cm?. The coefficient of friction between shoe and wheel drum is 0.50. If the wheel has a radius of 32 cm, determine the frictional torque about the axle when a force of 33 N is exerted on the brake pedal.

Many of the cities in Holland are below sea level, and the sea is held back by a series of levies, called dikes. A story tells of a young Dutch boy named Hans Brinker, who was walking home along the dikes from school one day, and saw a small leak. He realized this was a real problem, so he stuck his thumb in the hole and cried for help. Imagine that the hole is 10.0 feet (3.08 meters) beneath the level of the sea beyond. How much pressure is being exerted at the hole? Hans’ thumb has a surface area of 0.895 square centimeters (Think: How many square centimeters in a square meter?). How much force does he feel on his thumb? Do you think that is a reasonable amount of force for a child to balance? Normally, to find the total pressure exerted, we’d have to add atmospheric pressure to the pressure exerted by the seawater. Why do we not have to worry about that here? *Problems involving the buoyant force are Newton’s Second Law problems, and should be solved with the same process!*
A very large water tank, open at the top, has a small hole in the bottom. Assume that the area of the hole is much much smaller than the area of the top of the tank. When the water level is 34.6 m above the bottom of the tank, what is the speed of the water leaking from the hole? Express your answer in m/s, to at least one digit after the decimal point.
