The load-bearing piston in a hydraulic system has an area of 0.20 m2 (that?s
about a half-meter radius circle), and the input piston has an area that?s 50
times smaller. Suppose the larger piston must support an 800-kg load of
cement.
(a) What force must the hydraulic fluid exert on this load-bearing piston?
(b) What is the pressure in the hydraulic fluid?
(c) What force must be applied to the input piston?
