How to Calculate Force at Point 1 using Pascal's Law?
Force at Point 1 using Pascal's Law calculator uses Force at Point 1 = Force at Point 2*(Area at Point 1/Area at Point 2) to calculate the Force at Point 1, The Force at Point 1 using Pascal's Law formula is defined as the function of force at point 2 and area of cross section of 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. Force at Point 1 is denoted by F1 symbol.
How to calculate Force at Point 1 using Pascal's Law using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Force at Point 1 using Pascal's Law, enter Force at Point 2 (F2), Area at Point 1 (A1) & Area at Point 2 (A2) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Force at Point 1 using Pascal's Law calculation can be explained with given input values -> 11.93125 = 12.45*(23/24).
