A hydraulic press has two pistons of areas and , where . A force is applied to the smaller piston (). If the fluid is incompressible and frictional losses are negligible, what is the increase in pressure experienced by the larger piston ()?
A U-tube is partially filled with a liquid of density . A piston of negligible mass and area is placed on one arm of the U-tube, creating a height difference between the liquid levels. A second identical piston is then placed on the other arm. What additional force must be applied to the second piston to equalize the liquid levels?
