Answer:
The answer is 3 * 10^4 N
Step-by-step explanation:
Let F1 be the force applied on input piston, F2 be the force applied on output piston, A1 be the surface area of the input piston and A2 be the surface area of the output piston.
According to hydraulics principle,
F1/A1 = F2/A2
or, F1/F2 = A1/A2
or, 100/F2 = 10/3000
or, F2 = 100 * 3000/10
0r, F2 = 30000 N
= 3 * 10^4 N
Hope this helps.
