When the button of a trash compactor is pushed, a force of \( 350 \) \( \text{N} \) pushes down on a \( 1.3 \) \( \text{cm}^2 \) input piston, creating a force of \( 22,076 \) \( \text{N} \) to crush the trash. What is the area of the piston that crushes the trash?

A ball falls straight down through the air under the influence of gravity. There is a retarding force \(F\) on the ball with magnitude given by \(F=bv\), where \(v\) is the speed of the ball and \(b\) is a positive constant. The ball reaches a terminal velocity after a time \(t\). The magnitude of the acceleration at time \(t/2\) is

A Venturi meter is a device used for measuring the speed of a fluid within a pipe. The drawing shows a gas flowing at a speed \( v_2 \) through a horizontal section of pipe with a cross-sectional area \( A_2 = 542 \) \( \text{cm}^2 \). The gas has a density of \( 1.35 \) \( \text{kg/m}^3 \). The Venturi meter has a cross-sectional area of \( A_1 = 215 \) \( \text{cm}^2 \) and has been substituted for a section of the larger pipe. The pressure difference between the two sections \( P_2 – P_1 = 145 \) \( \text{Pa} \).

When a horizontal force of \( 4.5 \, \text{N} \) acts on a block on a resistance-free surface, it produces an acceleration of \( 2.5 \, \text{m/s}^2 \). Suppose a second \( 4.0 \, \text{kg} \) block is dropped onto the first. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the combination if the same force continues to act? Assume that the second block does not slide on the first block.
