Obviously the pressure goes up, but there are many other factors in play here. You have only told us one tiny piece of the situation.

What is the relationship between area and pressure of a constant force?

The area over which a force acts, is proportional to the pressure. When the area is large then, the pressure acted on it is also large, so the force is greater.


How big is a sewer rod?

A sewer "rod" is normally no larger then 3/8 of an inch diameter BUT a SEWER Cable can be as large as 11\4" even the small sewer rods can have large heads to maintain sewers as large as 36"


What would happen if you connect large sewer pressure pipe to a small pressure pipe?

Nothing as long as the pressure pipe is not used for potable water as you cannot make a direct connection and depending on the GPM flow what size the larger sewer pipe is as 1 GPM (pumping) is considered 1 fixture unit when sizing the drainage system ALSO make sure the pumps system enters at a right angle 45 deg so your not eroding the side of the larger pipe out


How can you increase the force a hydraulic device produces without increasing the size of the force you apply to the small piston?

You reduce the diameter of the small piston. Or reduce the diameter and increase the travel of the small piston if you want the large piston to maintain it's previous range of travel.


What are the advantages of the manometer pressure-measurement device?

The manometer in its various forms is an extremely useful type of pressure measuring instrument, but suffers from a number of limitations.While it can be adapted to measure very small pressure differences, it can not be used conveniently for large pressure differences - although it is possible to connect a number of manometers in series and to use mercury as the manometric fluid to improve the range. (limitation)A manometer does not have to be calibrated against any standard; the pressure difference can be calculated from first principles. ( Advantage)Some liquids are unsuitable for use because they do not form well-defined menisci. Surface tension can also cause errors due to capillary rise; this can be avoided if the diameters of the tubes are sufficiently large - preferably not less than 15 mm diameter. (limitation)A major disadvantage of the manometer is its slow response, which makes it unsuitable for measuring fluctuating pressures.(limitation)It is essential that the pipes connecting the manometer to the pipe or vessel containing the liquid under pressure should be filled with this liquid and there should be no air bubbles in the liquid.(important point to be kept in mind)

What happen to the pressure of gas when the pipe is change from large to small diameter?

The pressure increases as the volume decreases, so when the pipe is changed from large to small, the pressure of the gas will increase.


Why artery called resistance vessels?

The contraction and relaxation of the smooth muscle in their walls can change their diameter, thus changing the level of pressure (large diameter yields low pressure and smaller diameter yields high pressure).

Does a tornado's low air pressure make houses explode?

No. The pressure drop inside a tornado is not large enough for this to happen. Tornadoes tear houses apart with the power of their wind.

What causes the strong winds in a tornado?

Change in air pressure causes the strong winds. In fact, most winds that we experience on Earth are caused by change in air pressure. Usually significant changes in air pressure occur over a large area and therefore it's only a slow change in pressure over distance making light winds. In a tornado, you get a significant drop in air pressure over just a few feet of land. This causes the winds to get excessivly high.


What causes a car window to implode?

A car window might implode when it is exposed to a large change in pressure. For example, a pressure change during a tornado or while sinking into deep water could cause the window to implode.
