Energy involved

If i apply a force G un the red left piston,will the system move?

P.S. In blue water and that strange white snake an empty flexible tube

[Marsing]

maybe, if your snake is soft enough.
automotive repairing station are the good sample with the snake have been put to the zoo,
lol

puzzle solved.

Isn't clear. If i put a plastic flexible tube on the left,and I apply an equal force on the right and on the left,on the left cilinder there is much pressure than right. Cause surface of piston in contact with the water is less. This if the plastic flexible hose is orizzontal and not curved. My question is the following: Does the reaction on the hose became istantanly great causing pressures on both cilinder became the same,or the is a linear variation of resistence coming to the max when the hose is pratically bend in 2?

Thank you

P.S. Sorry for my bad english

[Marsing]

huh..  this is a great puzzle

hose should bend up.
next clue ?

[Gabriele]

IF the hose bends,we can gather energy from the movement of the two pistons because displacing of water is negative on the left and positive to the right cilinder... so the applied forces moves right same distance... this IF the hose bends...
