How to Calculate Area at Point 2 using Pascal's Law?
Area at Point 2 using Pascal's Law calculator uses Area at Point 2 = Area at Point 1*(Force at Point 2/Force at Point 1) to calculate the Area at Point 2, The Area at Point 2 using Pascal's Law formula is defined as the function of area of point 1 and forces at both points. A consequence of the pressure in a fluid remaining constant in the horizontal direction is that the pressure applied to a confined fluid increases the pressure throughout by the same amount. This is called Pascal’s law, after Blaise Pascal (1623–1662). Pascal also knew that the force applied by a fluid is proportional to the surface area. He realized that two hydraulic cylinders of different areas could be connected, and the larger could be used to exert a proportionally greater force than that applied to the smaller. “Pascal’s machine” has been the source of many inventions that are a part of our daily lives such as hydraulic brakes and lifts. This is what enables us to lift a car easily by one arm. Area at Point 2 is denoted by A2 symbol.
How to calculate Area at Point 2 using Pascal's Law using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Area at Point 2 using Pascal's Law, enter Area at Point 1 (A1), Force at Point 2 (F2) & Force at Point 1 (F1) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Area at Point 2 using Pascal's Law calculation can be explained with given input values -> 27.40191 = 23*(12.45/10.45).
