transmitted equally to every part of the liquid F1 = 15 F2 = ? Question A1 = 4 A1 = 24
The figure shows a hydraulic system.
Base on the information, determine the value of F2. Solution From Pascal’s principle P1 = P 2 expand the formula F1/A1 = F2/A2 rearrange the formula F2 = (A2/A1) × F1 substitute the value F2 = (24/4) × 15 F2 = 90 N
