Question

The plunger of the hydraulic lift in a gasoline service station has a diameter of 1 inch. It is operated by a compressed air (density = 63 kg/m3) from the tank in which the pressure is 9.315 x 105 pascals. The output piston and the rack on which the car rests are 2 feet lower than the input plunger and together weigh 1,336.33 newtons. What is the weight of the heaviest car that can be lifted if the output piston has a diameter of 1 foot? Assume 80% efficiency of the machine.

*
A hydraulic lift raises a total
load of 8 tonnes through a
height of 12 m- once in every
two minutes. The speed of
the lift being 60m/sec. It is
worked from an accumulator,
which is being continuously
charged by a pump. The
pressure of water is 35
Kg/cm3. Neglecting friction
losses in the pipe. Power
required to drive the pump=
12.6 hp
