How much do you know about Mechanical Aptitude?In an ideal hydraulic system (Pascal's principle), which statement is correct?
Answers
The pressure decreases when moving to a larger piston
Force is always conserved regardless of area
The pressure is transmitted equally in all directions; forces are amplified with different areasCorrect
Work is created from nothing
P=F/A is transmitted; With a large piston, F increases proportionally to the area, but the stroke decreases to conserve work (ideal).
