In a vehicle lifter, the enclosed gas exerts a force $F$ on a small piston of $8 \text{ cm}$ diameter. The pressure is transmitted to a second piston of diameter $24 \text{ cm}$. If the mass of the vehicle to be lifted is $1400 \text{ kg}$, then $F$ must at least be $(g=10 \text{ ms}^{-2})$. (in $\text{ N}$)
