Yeah; you turn a bigger wheel to drive a small one, so when you turn the big wheel you use your force over a longer distance, which causes the small wheel to have more power over a smaller distance

Why are hydraulic system known as force multipliers?

That's their whole purpose. You push with a small force on one side, and get a much larger force on the other side. The end-effect is similar to that of a lever.


What is the input force and output force of a can opener?

A "regular" can opener is a machine that combines a wedge (to cut through the top of the can) with a wheel and axle (which moves the can opener's cuttng wheel -- the wedge -- around the top of the can). The input force is provided by the operator, either by hand or via electric power. The output force is the separation of the metal of the top and the movement of the opener around the can. We also find that the can and the openers parts get a bit warmer with its use, and there are losses in the system due to friction.

Can a can opener kill you?

With enough force behind it, nearly anything can kill you. If you somehow manage to cut an artery using the can opener, or if you cut yourself with it and got tetanus from it, you could die. Also, someone could kill you with a can opener if they hit you hard enough. On its own, a can opener cannot kill you, as it is an inanimate object.
