Question
7. A force of 400 N is applied to the small piston of area of 0.5 cm³ of a hydraulic press. What is the
force exerted on the large piston with diameter of 20 cm?
[25 x10° N]
8. In a hydraulic press the smaller piston has a diameter of 40 mm and the larger piston has a
diameter of 500 mm.
a. What force must be applied to the smaller cylinder to lift a mass of 2000 kg?
b. If it is required to lift the 2000 kg mass to 100 mm height, how far must the small piston
move?
[125.57 N, 15.63 m]
