If the small piston has an area of .004 square
meters and Bob pushes down on it with 225 N of
force, how much weight can he lift on the car
side of the system, if that piston's area is 3.5
square meters?


Sagot :

F₂ = 1.723 x 10⁸ N

Further explanation

Given

Area of small piston : 0.004 m²

Area of large piston : 3.5 m²

Force 225 N

Required

Force applied

Solution

Pascal Law :

F₁/A₁=F₂/A₂

225/0.004 m² = F₂/3.5² m²

F₂ = 1.723 x 10⁸ N
