| 1 | \[\frac{F_{\text{in}}}{A_{\text{in}}} = \frac{F_{\text{out}}}{A_{\text{out}}}\] | Pascal’s principle states that the pressure applied to an enclosed fluid is transmitted equally throughout the fluid, so the pressure on the input piston equals the pressure on the output piston. |
| 2 | \[A_{\text{out}} = \frac{F_{\text{out}} \cdot A_{\text{in}}}{F_{\text{in}}}\] | Rearrange the pressure equality to solve for the output piston area \(A_{\text{out}}\). |
| 3 | \[A_{\text{out}} = \frac{22076\,\text{N} \times 1.3\,\text{cm}^2}{350\,\text{N}}\] | Substitute the given values: the input force \(F_{\text{in}} = 350\,\text{N}\), the input area \(A_{\text{in}} = 1.3\,\text{cm}^2\), and the output force \(F_{\text{out}} = 22076\,\text{N}\). |
| 4 | \[A_{\text{out}} = \frac{28698.8\,\text{N}\cdot\text{cm}^2}{350\,\text{N}}\] | Calculate the numerator by multiplying \(22076 \times 1.3 = 28698.8\). The Newton units cancel out with the denominator. |
| 5 | \[A_{\text{out}} \approx 82.0\,\text{cm}^2\] | Divide \(28698.8\) by \(350\) to obtain the output piston area, which is approximately \(82.0\,\text{cm}^2\). |
Just ask: "Help me solve this problem."
A Venturi tube has a pressure difference of \( 15\,000 \) \( \text{Pa} \). The entrance radius is \( 3 \) \( \text{cm} \), while the exit radius is \( 1 \) \( \text{cm} \). What are the entrance velocity, exit velocity, and flow rate if the fluid is gasoline \( (\rho = 700 \) \( \text{kg/m}^3 ) \)?
A pump, submerged at the bottom of a well that is \( 35 \) \( \text{m} \) deep, is used to pump water uphill to a house that is \( 50 \) \( \text{m} \) above the top of the well, as shown to the right. The density of water is \( 1000 \) \( \text{kg/m}^3 \). All pressures are gauge pressures. Neglect the effects of friction, turbulence, and viscosity.
Two objects labeled K and L have equal mass but densities \( 0.95D_o \) and \( D_o \), respectively. Each of these objects floats after being thrown into a deep swimming pool. Which is true about the buoyant forces acting on these objects?
A helium-filled balloon is attached by a string of negligible mass to a small \(0.015 \ \text{kg}\) object that is just heavy enough to keep the balloon from rising. The total mass of the balloon, including the helium, is \(0.0050 \ \text{kg}\). The density of air is \(\rho_{\text{air}} = 1.29 \ \text{kg/m}^3\), and the density of helium is \(\rho_{\text{He}} = 0.179 \ \text{kg/m}^3\). The buoyant force on the \(0.015 \ \text{kg}\) object is small enough to be negligible.
Two blocks of the same size are floating in a container of water. The first block is submerged \( 80\% \) while the second block is submerged by \( 20\% \) beneath the water. Which of the following is a correct statement about the two blocks?
\(\boxed{82.0\,\text{cm}^2}\)

General Metric Conversion Chart
Example of using unit analysis: Convert 5 kilometers to millimeters.
Start with the given measurement: [katex]\text{5 km}[/katex]
Use the conversion factors for kilometers to meters and meters to millimeters: [katex]\text{5 km} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{m}}{1 \, \text{km}} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{mm}}{1 \, \text{m}}[/katex]
Perform the multiplication: [katex]\text{5 km} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{m}}{1 \, \text{km}} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{mm}}{1 \, \text{m}} = 5 \times 10^3 \times 10^3 \, \text{mm}[/katex]
Simplify to get the final answer: [katex]\boxed{5 \times 10^6 \, \text{mm}}[/katex]
