Answer:
[tex]F = 4.05\times 10^{9}\ N[/tex]
Explanation:
Given:
Exerts pressure
[tex]p = 2.41\times 10^{7}\ Pa[/tex]
Piston has an area
[tex]A = 168\ cm^{2][/tex]
We need to find the force exerted by piston.
Solution:
Formula of pascals law's is given as:
[tex]p=\frac{F}{A}[/tex]
Where:
F = Force applied
P = Pressure exerted
A = Cross sectional area
Substitute force and area in pascal's formula.
[tex]2.4\times 10^{7}=\frac{F}{168}[/tex]
Using cross multiplication.
[tex]F = (2.41\times 10^{7})\times 168[/tex]
[tex]F = 404.88\times 10^{7}[/tex]
[tex]F = 4.05\times 10^{9}\ N[/tex]
Therefore, the force exerted by piston [tex]F = 4.05\times 10^{9}\ N[/tex]
