Answer:
W₂= 10000 N
Explanation:
Pascal´s Principle can be applied in the hydraulic press:
If we apply a small force (F1) on a small area piston A1, then, a pressure (P) is generated that is transmitted equally to all the particles of the liquid until it reaches a larger area piston and therefore a force (F2) can be exerted that is proportional to the area (A2) of the piston:
Pressure is defined as the force (F) applied per unit area (A)
P=F/A (N/m²)
P1=P2
Equation (1)
Data
W₁ = weight sits on the small piston
F₁ = W₁= 500 N
A₁ = 2.0 cm²
A₂ = 40 cm²
Calculation of the weight (W₂) can the large piston support
We replace data in the equation (1)
F₂ = 10000 N
W₂= F₂= 10000 N
