A piston of cross-sectional area a is used in a hydraulic press to exert a small force of magnitude f on the enclosed liquid. A connecting pipe leads to a larger piston of cross-sectional area A (the figure). If the piston diameters are 3.80 cm and 62.1 cm, what force magnitude on the small piston will balance a 38.3 kN force on the large piston? Number Units Use correct number of significant digits; the tolerance is +/-2%
