What would happen if you doubled the area of the piston on the right side of the hydraulic system?
Double the force applied by that piston and half the speed that it moves.
How do you calculate force for hydraulics?
You get the force exerted by a hydraulic piston by taking the pressure times the surface area of the piston.
Why can hydraulic car breaks be described as a force multiplier?
When you step on the brake pedal, a force is applied directly to a piston of area 'a'. The hydraulic fluid thus pressurized is directed to other pistons of area 'A' >'a' at each wheel which push the brake pads against the rotating disk attached to the wheel. Since A>a, the applied force is multiplied by the ratio A/a.
How is a force multiplied in a hudraulic system?
In a hydraulic system, the force on the applying piston is multiplied by the reciprocal of the area of the piston, to find pressure which is multiplied by the piston area.
What happens when pressure is applied to both ports on a hydraulic cylinder?
If you apply the same pressure to both ports, then the piston will move. This is because the areas of the piston are different, due to the piston rod on one side. The force on the large area will be P x A1 and the opposing force will be P x A2, where A2 is less than A1 by the area of the piston rod. The resultant force will be P x (A1-A2).

What is use to push caliper piston in caliper?
Hydraulic force, transmitted by the brake fluid.
How is energy conserved in a Hydraulic system?
The consertvation of energy in a hydraulic system could be understood by the formular (ENERGY = FORCE x DISTANCE) that represents mechanical energy. Now the hydraulic system consist mainly of two set of pistons which are the master where the energy is applied to the system and the slave where energy leaves the system to the load. Irrespective of the force diffence of the master piston and the slave piston, they will always give the same value when multiplied with distance moved by their respective pistons. This prove that the difference in forces experienced or distance moved by the master and slave piston did not alter the amount of energy in the hydraulic system since energy can be seen as force x distance ;)
Is the ratio of output force to input force of a hydraulic press equal to the ratio of the output and input piston areas?
Areas
How does a hyraulic lift work?
Pascal's principle : Pressure applied to an enclosed fluid is transmitted undiminished to every part of the fluid, as well as to the walls of the container. A common application of this is a hydraulic lift used to raise a car off the ground so it can be repaired at a garage. A small force applied to a small-area piston is transformed to a large force at a large-area piston. If a car sits on top of the large piston, it can be lifted by applying a relatively small force to the smaller piston, the ratio of the forces being equal to the ratio of the areas of the pistons.
Why is force exerted on a small piston multiplied when it acts on a larger pistion?
Suppose the smaller piston was 1 square cm and the large piston was 7 square cm. If you pushed on the small piston, the force would be multiplied 7 times on the large piston. The Hydraulic System is a system that uses liquids to transmit pressure and multiply force in a confined fluid. Hope this helped. (:
What does the actuator do?
The most common actuator is a hydraulic actuator or an electro-servo actuator. These are linear actuators that move a piston rod to a set stroke and force. It is used to push and pull at a fixed length(stroke) and force. Used in conjuction with rods and cranks, the actuator can be used to move controls through variable geometry such as arcs. The Hydraulic Actuator has a piston internal to the housing. The hydraulic pressure is ported on one end and forces the piston to move to the opposite end, which pushes the rod to extend it. Reversing the hydraulic pressure(or applying it at the other side of the piston) will cause the rod to stroke back to original position. The force that is available is equal to the hydraulic pressure times the area of the piston.
