the pressures F/A on both pistons should be equal. F = force, A = area
2000/20 = X/1
100 = X
______________
The load-bearing piston in a certain hydraulic system has an area 20 times as large as the input piston. If the larger piston supports a load of 2000N, how large a force must be applied to the input piston?
