In a car lift, compressed air exerts force F₁ on a small piston of radius 5.0 cm. This pressure lifts a car of mass 1350 kg on a large piston of radius 15 cm. The force F₁ required is: (g = 9.8 m/s²) (NCERT Example 9.6)
A.
490 N
B.
1470 N
C.
4410 N
D.
14700 N
ANSWER :
B. 1470 N
14.

15.
In a hydraulic lift, the small piston has area A₁ and the large piston has area A₂. If the small piston is pushed down by distance d₁, the large piston rises by distance d₂. The relation between d₁ and d₂ is:
A.
d₁/d₂ = A₁/A₂
B.
d₁/d₂ = A₂/A₁
C.
d₁ = d₂
D.
d₁ × d₂ = A₁ × A₂
ANSWER :
B. d₁/d₂ = A₂/A₁
16.

10 N
B.
30 N
C.
90 N
D.
270 N
ANSWER :
C. 90 N
