What is Extension Force?

Extension Force refers to the force exerted by a system when pressure is applied over a specific area. It is commonly used in mechanical and structural engineering to determine the force generated by hydraulic or pneumatic systems. Understanding the extension force is crucial for designing and analyzing systems that rely on pressure to perform work.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula to calculate the Extension Force:

\[ EF = 150 \cdot 2 = 300 \text{ lbf} \]

The Extension Force is 300 lbf.
