Let x = 0.555…

Then 10x = 5.555…

Subtract one from the other to get

10x - x = 5.555… - 0.555…

Notice how the fractional parts on the right cancel. This leaves you with

9x = 5

and so

x = 5/9

A hydraulic lift is to be used to lift a 2000-kg weight by putting a weight of 25 kg on a piston with a diameter of 10 cm. Deter

grigory [225]

Answer:

88 centimeters is the diameter of the cilinder

Step-by-step explanation:

The pressure on both ends of the lift must be the same. Assuming the piston is cilindrical, its area will be A=π*r² where r is half the diameter

Since pressure P=F/A And P1=P2

F1=2000kg.g

A1=π*r²

F2=25kg.g

A2=π*0.05²

2000/(π*r²)=25/(π*0.05²)

and we solve for A1

r²=2000*0.05²/25

$r=\sqrt{\frac{2000*0.05^2}{25}}$

r= $\sqrt{5}$ 20*0.05/5=0.44m or 44cm

This is the radius, meaning that the diameter will be twice this number
