Final answer:

The hydraulic pressure capacity of a crane or a lull is governed by the force to area ratio. Increasing the force requires applying pressure to a larger area.

Step-by-step explanation:

In hydraulic systems, the hydraulic pressure capacity of a crane or a lull is governed by the force to area ratio. The force exerted by the hydraulic system depends on the area of the cylinders involved. To increase the force, the pressure is applied to a larger area.

For example, if a 100-N force is applied to a hydraulic cylinder with an area five times greater, the output force will be 500 N.

This relationship between force and area is described by the equation: Force = Pressure × Area.
