The system shown is at rest. Piston A (mA = 2.25 slug) has a diameter of 4.50 in and supports a crate which has a weight W = between Pistons A and B. Piston B (mB = 0.150 slug) has 1690 lb. An unknown fluid fills the space a diameter of d = 0.690 in. Atmospheric pressure is 14.7 psi. What is the pressure in the fluid just under Piston A? What is the magnitude of the force F?

Positive rating for free body diagram and explanation
The system shown is at rest. Piston A (mA == 2.25 slug) has a diameter of 4.50 in and supports a crate which has a weight W = 1690 lb. An unknown fluid fills the space between Pistons A and B. Piston B (mB = 0.150 slug) has a diameter of d = 0.690 in. Atmospheric pressure is 14.7 psi. What is the pressure in the fluid just under Piston A? What is the magnitude of the force F?
