Answer:
The pressure on piston 1 is always equal to the pressure on piston 2. ... It is equal to the force on piston 1, multiplied by A2/A1. Hydraulic systems are called force multipliers for exactly this reason. A small force can be increased by using hydraulics.

Answer :
- Because it applies Pascal's formula:
Here,
F = Force
P = Press
S = Surface Area
- According to Pascal's law, in a closed system, pressure is equal everywhere, hence the same pressure will act on the huge piston on the other side as well.
- For example, if the lift cylinder has a diameter of 25 cm and the small cylinder has a diameter of 1.25 cm, the ratio of the areas is 400, and the hydraulic press arrangement produces a force multiplier of 400 times.
