Ahydraulic press must exert a force of 20,000n to crush a wrecked car into a convienent block. if the output piston is eight times the area of the input piston, what input force is required?

Explanation:

We shall apply Pascal's law here to find the solution .According to this law if we apply a pressure on a particular area over an in-compressible liquid it gets transferred to other point inside or over the surface of the liquid without getting diminished.

in the present case force is applied on a car to crush it which is enormous in magnitude. This force is 20000 N, which is also called output force  Let the surface on which car is placed be A₂. We apply input force F₁ at other point over a small area be it A₁.

According to Pascal law ,

20000/ A₂ = F₁ / A₁

F₁ = 20000 X (A₁ / A₂)

= 20000 X 1/8

= 2500 N.

an ion is a charged atom or molecule. it is charged because the number of electrons do not equal the number of protons in the atom or molecule. an atom can acquire a positive charge or a negative charge depending on whether the number of electrons in an atom is greater or less then the number of protons in the atom.
