Pascal's Principle Worksheet

This document contains a short physics worksheet about Pascal's principle and Archimedes' principle for a student studying industrial technology. It provides 3 word problems asking the student to use the principles of hydraulics to calculate forces or areas in hydraulic systems. The student must determine the force exerted by a larger piston given the force and area of a smaller piston, calculate the area of a smaller piston given the force needed to lift a load, and find the force exerted on a larger piston connected to a smaller one through an incompressible liquid.

PASCAL’s and ARCHIMEDES PRINCIPLE

Directions: Solve for what is being asked in the following problems:


1. Two pistons of a hydraulic press lift in an area of 30 m2. What is the force
exerted by the larger piston when 50 N is placed on the smaller piston
with an area of 18.5 m2?
2. A car weighing 15,000 N is on a hydraulic lift platform measuring 10m2.
What is the area of the smaller piston if a force of 1,100 N is used to lift
the car?
3. In a hydraulic system, a piston with a cross-sectional area of 25 cm2
pushes on an incompressible liquid with a force of 38 N. The far end of
the hydraulic pipe connects to a second piston with a cross-sectional
surface area of 120 cm2. What is the force on the second piston?
