How do you figure out distance?
A 1/2 diameter piston moves 10 inches with 30 lbs force how far will it move with 6 inch diameter piston and how much weight will it lift
If a piston has a radius of 2.5 inches and a height of 5 inches what is its volume?
Volume of a cylinder = pi*r2*h where r is the radius and h the height. = pi*2.52*5 = 98.2 cubic inches.
When an 8 square inch piston moves 5 inches within a cylinder the volume of a liquid displaced will be?
Volume = pi*r2*h = 8*5 = 40 cubic inches
If a typical radial engine has a bore of 5.5 inches and a stroke of 5.5 inches what is the area and where is the piston displacement?
This is the formula. Area = .7854 x bore^2 A = .7854 x 30.25 (5.5^2) A= 23.75 sq.in Volume = Area x stroke 23.75 x 5.5 = 130.625 cubic inches. *This is just one piston. If engine was a nine cylinder then 130.625 x 9 = 1175.625*
Why cant we use a rectangular piston where in the edges are chamfered?
If you mean in a car engine, it's because an explosion (even a controlled one of the gasoline/petrol being ignited by a spark plug) creates a spherical force. So, the cylindrical piston is the same shape as the explosion, and gets the most efficient pressure distribution. A rectangular piston would get force in the middle, but not the edges, and it would take more force to do the same job. Also, the rectangular piston would wear down faster because of the uneven force being applied.
If a cylinder has an input pressure of 50 psi and the blank side of the piston is 5 sq inches how much total force is applied by the piston?
Multiply the number of square inches times the pounds per square inch. In this case, 5 x 50- or 250 pounds of force.
What is the piston displacement of a master cylinder with a 1.5 inch diameter bore and a piston stroke of 4 inches?
9.4247 cubic inches
If a 3 N force is applied to the small piston of a hydraulic lift with an aarea of 0.5 m3 how much force will be applied to the large piston if it has an area of 2 m3?
6 m^3
How are hydraulics used in car brakes?
As the brake pedal is pressed, an attached rod on the master cylinder applying pressure to the brake fluid in psi. This pressure is applied to the calipers/wheel cylinders clamping the brakes. In front brakes(disc/caliper) setups the pressure is multiplied. An example: Applying 100lbs of force to the master cylinder(not the pedal, since the pedal has a mechanical advantage of 5-7:1 meaning 20lbs or less on the pedal is 100 on the master cylinder). Because the master cylinder's piston has an area of 1 square inch(generalization) it would equal 100psi. 100psi of pressure on the caliper's piston which can have an area of around(say) 3inches, would exert 300psi of pressure on the pads.n disc drakes
Why engine piston ring jam?
more heat is generated in working of engine so its piston ring war out and cut mark appears on the ring surface.
What is clearance volume of engine?
The volume between the engine head and piston when the piston is in the head dead center piston R - is expressed in cubic inches
How does a car engine generate power?
the patrol enter the basins where it will fired with the power generated from the piston to the plugs
What is the purpose of fixing a dummy piston and cylinder in steam turbine rotor?
Dummy piston is provided to oppose the axial thrust generated (in the direction of steam) due to incoming steam.
What does cdi mean on a car?
Cubic displacement inches (the volume in inches displaced by the piston/s).
What would happen if you doubled the area of the piston on the right side of the hydraulic system?
Double the force applied by that piston and half the speed that it moves.
What does CC stand for in Gasoline engins?
cubic inches as in piston displacement
When the brakes in a car are applied what does the piston in the caliper do to the pads?
The piston is forced out of the caliper by the pressure of the brake fluid. This pushes the brake pads against the rotor, in turn stopping the vehicle.
