$A$ hydraulic lift as shown in the figure is used to lift a mass of $1000 \ kg$, which is placed on a piston $(P_1)$ of area $1 \ m^2$. If the cross-section area of the piston $(P_2)$ at the other end is $0.01 \ m^2$, then how much mass needs to be put on it to lift the $1000 \ kg$ (in $kg$)?

  • A
    $1$
  • B
    $10$
  • C
    $50$
  • D
    $100$
