According to Pascal’s principle, the force per unit area describes an external pressure which is
transmitted through fluid and the formula is written as,
Example 1:
Solution:
Pascal’s principle is given by,
We know that,
F1 = 30 newtons,
A1 = 20 square centimeters
Insert the given values to calculate the force on the second piston:
F2 = A2 x F1/A1
= 100 x 30 / 20
= 150 N
Example 2:
A piston has a cross-sectional area of 40 square centimeters in a hydraulic system and pushes an
incompressible liquid with a force of 50 newtons. The other end of the hydraulic pipe is connected to a
second piston with a cross-sectional surface area of 50 square centimeters. Determine the force on the
second piston.
Solution:
We know that,
F1 = 50 newtons,
A1 = 40 square centimeters
A2 = 50 square centimeters
Insert the given values to calculate the force on the second piston:
F2 = A2 x F1/A1
= 50 x 50 / 40
= 62.5 N
