A hydraulic press for compacting powdered samples has a large
cylinder which is 10.0 cm in diameter, and a small cylinder with a
diameter of 2.0 cm. A lever is attached to the small cylinder as
shown in (Figure 1). The sample, which is placed on the large
cylinder, has an area of 4.0 cm2.
What is the pressure on the sample if F =
270 N is applied to the lever?
