A drain plunger is sometimes (though rarely) called a force cup. Asking for a force cup at the hardware store will only slow your ability to get one, and it could easily result in your being thought of as a "wise guy" or something else.
The magnetic field produced by the solenoid interacts with the plunger's ferromagnetic material, creating a force that moves the plunger. This force is generated due to the attraction between the opposite magnetic poles of the solenoid and the plunger.
The force that causes a plunger to return to its at-rest position is typically a spring or elastic material that is compressed while the plunger is being pushed down. When the external force is removed, the stored potential energy in the spring or elastic material is released, pushing the plunger back to its original position.
The mass in the syringe, as you push down the plunger.
Increasing the force on the plunger will decrease the volume of air in the syringe as the increased pressure compresses the air.
To effectively remove a sink plunger, grip the handle firmly and pull upwards with steady force until the plunger comes free from the sink drain.
The reaction force when you place a cup on a table is the force exerted by the table on the cup in the opposite direction to the force applied by the cup on the table. This force prevents the cup from falling through the table and keeps it in place.
It is difficult to pull a plunger off a surface due to the creation of a vacuum seal. When the plunger is pressed against the surface, the air inside the suction cup is forced out, creating a vacuum. This vacuum seal creates a strong grip between the plunger and the surface, making it hard to pull off.
To effectively use the Power Plunger to unclog a drain, follow these steps: Fill the sink or tub with enough water to cover the plunger's cup. Place the plunger over the drain and push down firmly to create a seal. Pump the plunger up and down vigorously for about 20-30 seconds. Repeat the process a few times if necessary. Remove the plunger and test the drain to see if it is unclogged.
It is easier to push a smaller plunger in a fluid system because the force applied spreads over a smaller area, resulting in higher pressure, which makes it easier to move the plunger through the fluid.
The normal force exerted by a surface is a reaction force that opposes the force pressing the cup against it. The material of the cup does not affect this force because it is a result of the interaction between the cup and the surface it is resting on, not a property of the cup itself. As long as the cup is in contact with the surface, the normal force remains the same regardless of the cup material.
The force of gravity pushes the cup downwards towards the ground, while the normal force exerted by the table on the cup pushes upwards, balancing out the force of gravity and preventing the cup from falling.
