    50N

    Explanation:

    A1 (area of the smaller piston) = 20cm² = 0.2m²

    F1 (force acting on the smaller piston) = 10N

    F2 (force acting on the larger piston) = ?

    A2 (area of the larger piston) = 100cm² = 1m²

    F1 / A1 = F2 / A2

    F2 = (F1*A2) / A1

    F2 = (10*1) / 0.2

    F2 = 50N
