In The Hydraulic Machine Shown
With more hydraulics, we found that when the smaller piston was pushed to 10 cm, the larger piston was raised 1 cm.
updateIn a hydraulic motor, when the small piston is pushed to 10 cm, the larger piston appears to rise 1 cm. If the small piston is pressed with a force of 100 N, how much force can the big piston use?
= ____ n
Think of the work required to move the piston ... work done by force = F * d.
Energy added by small pistons = 100 N * 0.10 m = 10 J
In this case, the larger piston should produce the same energy, 10 J = F * 0.01 m ==> F = 1000 N
