Question

The length of the two arms of the leader in a hydraulic place is 20 cm and 100 cm The radii of the upper and sixth pistons are 30 cm and 3 cm respectively What is the force applied to the piston when a ball of 196 N is applied to the handle of the lever?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

As in hydraulic press, pressure will be equally transferred

⇒P

m×10

⇒m=7200kg

So, 7200kg weight should be put on a larger piston.
