As the bullet travels down the barrel gas trails behind and expands. The gas will reach the gas port and expand into the gas tube. The gas will continue to gain pressure and force the carrier to travel back against the buffer spring. The moving carrier pulls off the bolt. The pressure builds up around the case waiting to extract. It eventually starts turning and is forced out. If there is no more ammunition left the rear of the follower lifts up, pressing on the bolt hold-open and blocks the bolts forward progress. If the magazine is not empty then the top round is pressed upwards and to the feed lip by the spring. Then the carrier regains its energy back. The buffer spring drives the buffer and carrier forward.

The car lift in a gas station operates with an aire pressure of 2000 kPa The piston of the car lift has a diameter of 30 cm What is the mass of the largest car that the lift can raise?

F=P*A F (Force)=? P (Pressure)=2000kPa (*1000=2000000Pa) A (Area)=Pi*r^2 A (Area)=Pi*0.15m^2 (radius=0.15m, from 30cm diameter) If max the lift can handle is 2000kPa on 30cm piston, then: Max Force = F = P*A F=2000000*(Pi*0.15m^2) N F=141371.669 N mass = weight / gravity m = w / g let w equal F = 141371.669 N g = 9.8 m/s/s m = 141371.669 / 9.8 m = 14425.681 kg Therefore maximum mass the lift can handle = 14425.7kg (14.3 tonne)


How much work is performed by pulling a machine weighting 7000 N up an incline 120 m long and 16 m high?

The work done is equal to the change in potential energy, which is given by the formula: work = force * distance * cosine(angle). The force applied is the weight of the machine (7000 N), the distance is the length of the incline (120 m), and the angle is the incline angle (arctan(16/120)). Plug in the values to calculate the work done.
