In a vehicle lifter, the enclosed gas exerts a force $F$ on a small piston of $8 \text{ cm}$ diameter. The pressure is transmitted to a second piston of diameter $24 \text{ cm}$. If the mass of the vehicle to be lifted is $1400 \text{ kg}$, then $F$ must at least be $(g=10 \text{ ms}^{-2})$. (in $\text{ N}$)

  • A
    $1600$
  • B
    $1200$
  • C
    $1800$
  • D
    $700$

$A$ tall tank filled with water has an irregular shape as shown. The wall $CD$ makes an angle of $45^{\circ}$ with the horizontal,the wall $AB$ is normal to the base $BC$. The lengths $AB$ and $CD$ are much smaller than the height $h$ of water (figure not to scale). Let $p_1, p_2$ and $p_3$ be the pressures exerted by the water on the wall $AB$,base $BC$ and the wall $CD$ respectively. Density of water is $\rho$ and $g$ is acceleration due to gravity. Then,approximately

$A$ hydraulic press can lift $100\, kg$ when a mass $'m'$ is placed on the smaller piston. It can lift ......... $kg$ when the diameter of the larger piston is increased by $4$ times and that of the smaller piston is decreased by $4$ times,keeping the same mass $'m'$ on the smaller piston.
