The fluid reservoir stores the __________ that the master cylinder uses to maintain hydraulic pressure.
brake fluid
The fluid reservoir stores the brake fluid that the master cylinder uses to maintain hydraulic pressure.
According to Boyle's Law, pressure and volume are inversely proportional:
\( \frac{P_1}{P_2} \) = \( \frac{V_2}{V_1} \)
In this problem, V2 = 10 ft.3, V1 = 30 ft.3 and P1 = 6.0 psi. Solving for P2:
P2 = \( \frac{P_1}{\frac{V_2}{V_1}} \) = \( \frac{6.0 psi}{\frac{10 ft.^3}{30 ft.^3}} \) = 18 psi
A vehicle's lighting system is protected from current spikes by:
fuses and circuit breakers
The lighting system consists of interior lights, instrument panel lighting, headlights, and taillights. Like household electrical circuits, the vehicle's lighting system is protected from current spikes by fuses and circuit breakers.
The valence shell of n insulator is how full of electrons?
more than half full
Insulators have valence shells that are more than half full of electrons and, as such, are tightly bound to the nucleus and difficult to move from one atom to another.
If a 25 lbs. weight is placed 3 ft. from the fulcrum at the blue arrow and the green box is 6 ft. from the fulcrum, how much would the green box have to weigh to balance the lever?
To balance this lever the torques on each side of the fulcrum must be equal. Torque is weight x distance from the fulcrum so the equation for equilibrium is:
Rada = Rbdb
where a represents the left side of the fulcrum and b the right, R is resistance (weight) and d is the distance from the fulcrum.Solving for Ra, our missing value, and plugging in our variables yields:
Ra = \( \frac{R_bd_b}{d_a} \) = \( \frac{25 lbs. \times 3 ft.}{6 ft.} \) = \( \frac{75 ft⋅lb}{6 ft.} \) = 12.5 lbs.
Blood is delivered to bodily tissues through:
capillaries
The aorta is the body's largest artery and receives blood from the pulmonary vein via the left ventricle. From there, blood is circulated through the rest of the body through smaller arteries called arterioles that branch out from the heart. Finally, blood is delivered to bodily tissues through capillaries.
What is the voltage of most household electrical systems in the United States?
110V
Most households use electricity with a voltage of 110V.
