A pumped-up cycle tire has a volume of about 2 litres and when properly inflated is at a total pressure of about 6 bar. A typical hand pump has a piston cross-section area of 5 cm² and a stroke length of 40 cm. The atmospheric pressure is 1 bar. (g = 10 ms⁻²)

What force would have to be applied to the hand pump to reach the final pressure?

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

F = PA = 6 × 10⁵ Pa × 5 × 10⁻⁴ m² = 300 N. Hence (c).
