physics
The load-bearing piston in a certain hydraulic system has an area 20 times as large as the input piston. If the larger piston supports a load of 2000N, how large a force must be applied to the input piston? A certain boat displaces a volume of 4.5m3 of water (the density of ...

physics
A hydraulic press has an input cylinder 1 m in diameter and an output cylinder 2 meters in diameter. Assuming 100% efficiency, find the force exerted by the output piston when a force of 10 Newtons is applied to the input piston. pounds If the input piston is moved through 5 ...
