A force of 12,000 n is exerted on a piston that has an area of 0. 020 m 2. What is the area of a second piston that exerts a force of 24,000 n?

Sagot :

The area of a second piston that exerts a force of 24,000 N is 0.04 [tex]m^{2}[/tex].

Gravitational force is measured in newtons. Utilizing the physics formula pressure = force/area, you can compute pressure if you know the value of a force. Both pounds per square inch (psi) and newtons per square meter (N/m2) are acceptable units of measurement for this pressure.

Given force 1 =  12,000 N

The pressure which has produced a force of 12,000 N at the piston 1 = Force/ area

= 12,000N / 0.020 [tex]m^{2}[/tex]

= 6,00,000 N/[tex]m^{2}[/tex]

Now force at piston 1 must be equal to force at piston 2. thus, force at piston 2 is given by:

Force at piston 2 = pressure × area

24,000 N = 6,00,000 × area

area = 0.04 [tex]m^{2}[/tex]
