Hydraulics: The diagram shows two cylindrical pipes of diameters4 cm and 1 cm, connected by a conical flange. Each pipe has acylindrical piston in it. The fluid is incompressible, and has adensity of 1.5 g/cm^3. Use g = 10 N/kg = 10 m/s^2.
a.) If you exert a force of 10 kN on the large piston, how muchforce does the fluid exert on the small piston?
b.) How much pressure does the large piston exert on thefluid?
c.) If you push the large piston 1 cm, how far will the smallpiston move?
d.) If you remove the pistons and flow fluid through the pipe, andthe fluid moves through the large pipe at 10 cm/s, how fast will itbe moving in the small pipe?
e.) If the fluid flows through the large pipe under a pressure of 2kPa, what pressure will it have as it flows through the smallpipe?

--------------------------------

[] ----------------

F1 ---> [] 4 cm [] 1 cm ---> F2

[] fluid filled ----------------

[] <----conical flange (also above the 1 cmpipe).

--------------------------------

supposed to be a diagonal line connecting bottom 4 cm pipe to

bottom 1 cm pipe. and a diagonal line (conical flange)connecting

top of 4 cm pipe with top of 1 cm pipe. ( [] = the cylindricalpiston)

Sorry the diagram drawer wouldn't work for me..
