Question

Consider the hydraulic lift shown in the figure. The small piston has an area A1 of 0.0330 m2, and the large piston has an area A2 of 4.00 m2. What force F2 will the large piston F A2 provide if the small piston is pushed down with a force F А of 18.0 N? У1 F2 N If the small piston A1 is slowly depressed a distance of y1 0.200 m, what distance y2 will the large piston A2 rise? y2 = m What is the magnitude of the work done when pushing down the small piston A1? What is the magnitude of the work done when pushing up the large piston A2? small piston work: J large piston work: J

Answer 1

Pressure in both pistons is same, AI 18.2. - FL a IFR = 2181.82 N ] volume change is same Any, a AzYz 0.083 x 0.2= 4X Y 192 = 0.00165 m/ Wie Fiy, = 1840.2 [W, = 3.67] W2 = F242 = 2181-82 X 0.00165 TWae 3.67 .
