Question

In the figure, the large piston on the left has a diameter of D₁ = 9.00 cm.

The small piston on the right has a diameter of D₂ = 4.00 cm.

A lever arm pivot is located at a = 5.00 cm to the left of the small piston.

A small cylinder hangs from the end of the lever arm a distance of b = 25 cm to the right of the small piston.

In the absence of friction, determine the weight of the cylinder on top of the large left piston which can e supported in equilibrium with the small mass (m=0.350 kg) hanging from the far right level arm.

Please provide a free body diagram.

MUST use Pascal’s Principle, the sum of torques, AND the equation for the area of a circle. I recommend being true to the Givens by defining the length variables like: a = 5 cm, b = 25 cm; the moment arm for the applied force is then represented as: a + b. DO NOT USE TORQUE BALANCE. Also provide equations used prior to their derivations.
