Question
**Hydraulic Cylinder Analysis**

Given the hydraulic cylinder shown below, determine the following:

(a) What is the force out (\( F_{\text{out}} \))?
(b) What is the pressure (\( p \)) in the line?
(c) How far (\( D_{\text{in}} \)) must the input piston move for the output piston to move 1 inch?

**Diagram Explanation:**

- **Force In:** The system inputs 10 lbs of force.
- **Piston Areas:**
  - **Input Piston Area:** 1 in²
  - **Output Piston Area:** 10 in²

**Flow of Force:**

- The force is applied to the input piston with an area of 1 in².
- The force is transferred through the hydraulic fluid to the output piston.
- The increase in piston area from 1 in² to 10 in² affects the output force.

**Equations/Empty Fields:**

- a. \( F_{\text{out}} = \) ____________
- b. \( p = \) ____________
- c. \( D_{\text{in}} = \) ____________

The illustration highlights the input and output sections with arrows and labels indicating the direction of force application. The areas of the pistons are clearly marked to demonstrate how force and movement relate across the system.
