Question:

1. The small piston of a hydraulic press has an area of 8.00 cm2. If the applied force is 25.0 N, find the area of the large piston to exert a pressing force of 3600 N.
2. The MA of a hydraulic jack is 250. What force must be applied to lift an automobile weighing 12,000 N?
3. The small piston of a hydraulic press has an area of 4.00 in2. If the applied force is 10.0 lb, what must the area of the large piston be to exert a pressing force of 865 lb?
4. The MA of a hydraulic jack is 420. Find the weight of the heaviest automobile that can be lifted by an applied force of 55 N.
