Air driven piston creating vacuum
Consider you've achieved some pressure in the left cylinder, the system has moved and reached a state of rest. Lets find the pressure in the right cylinder. … We know that the pressure force is equal to the product of the pressure and the area it acts on, so: $F=PA$ When we substitute this in $F_1 = -F_2$ we get $$P_1A_1 = -P_2A_2$$
Then we subsitute $A_2 = …
