In a hydraulic press, a force of 40N is applied to the smaller priston of area 10cm2. If the area of the larger piston is 200cm2, calculate the force obtained

  • 800N checkmark
  • 500N
  • 80N`
  • 50N

The correct answer is: A

Explanation

\(F_2 = \frac{F_1 \times A_2}{A_1} = \frac{40 \times 200}{10} = 800N\)
