Calculate Piston Force



Formula

The formula to calculate the piston force (F) is:

\[ F = P \times A \]

Where:

Definitions

Example

Let's say the pressure applied to the piston is 500,000 pascals and the cross-sectional area of the piston is 0.01 square meters. Using the formula:

\[ F = 500,000 \times 0.01 \]

We get:

\[ F = 5,000 \]

So, the piston force (\( F \)) is 5,000 newtons.
