Force during Retraction

LaTeX Go Force Exerted (Piston) = Pressure during Retraction*(Area of Piston-Area of Piston Rod)

Area of Piston given Force and Pressure

LaTeX Go Area of Piston = Force Exerted (Piston)/Pressure Exerted by Piston

Force Exerted onto Piston or by Piston

LaTeX Go Force Exerted (Piston) = Pressure Exerted by Piston*Area of Piston

Pressure Exerted by Piston

LaTeX Go Pressure Exerted by Piston = Force Exerted (Piston)/Area of Piston
