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
= 260 N
is applied to the lever?
