A hydraulic lift has been constructed to lift vehicles of maximum 300

1.	A hydraulic lift has been constructed to lift vehicles of maximum 3000 Kg. weight. The area of cross-section of the piston’s platform on which the vehicles are lifted is 580 Sq.cm. Calculate the maximum pressure experienced on the small piston.
Answer» Area = 580cm² = 0.058m² Force = 3000 × 10 = 30000N Pressure = \(\frac{3000}{0.058}\) = 517241.36Pa

Answer»

Area = 580cm² = 0.058m²

Force = 3000 × 10 = 30000N

Pressure = \(\frac{3000}{0.058}\) = 517241.36Pa
