This system is used in hydraullics to increase the force on larger area
This is based upon the principle of Pascal's law
As per Pascal's law the pressure will remain the same on the same level
so if we applied some small amount of force on small area then the pressure will transmitted into the liquid by same amount
[tex]P = \frac{F}{a}[/tex]
here a= smaller area
F = applied smaller force
Now the pressure will transmit to bigger area without any change
so the force that is received by bigger area will be
[tex]F_{out} = Pressure * Area[/tex]
[tex]F_out = \frac{F}{a} * A[/tex]
A = area of the bigger platform
so by the above expression we can say that overall force will be more on bigger area.
So above statement is TRUE
