This is internal testing...No need to answer. (b) What is the magnitude of the force would she have to exert if the steel parts were oiled? When rebuilding her car’s engine, a physics major must exert 300 N of force to insert a dry steel piston into a steel cylinder. What is the magnitude of the normal force between the piston and cylinder?
Solve for Part A and Part B A solid, square pinewood raft measures 4.0 m on a side and is 0.30 m thick.(a) Determine whether the raft floats in water, and(b) if so, how much of the raft is beneath the surface? Remember: Conversion factor(density of pinewood = 550 kg/m3, density of water = 1000 kg/m3)
By definition, pressure is equal to the force exerted per unit area or P =  F A . Suppose that you place a 22 kg block on the a table.(a) If the bottom surface of the block has an area of 0.44 m2. What is the pressure caused by the block as it sits on the table? (Hint: You will need to find the weight of the block in order to know the force exerted. Use 10 m/s2 for gravity.)P = _______ Pa(b) How would your answer to part (a) change if the are of the block is 0.22 m2?P = ______ Pa
