Concept explainers
(a)
To Calculate: The pressure on the hydraulic cylinder.
(a)
Answer to Problem 36SSC
Explanation of Solution
Given data:
Weight lifted by a hydraulic cylinder
Area of a hydraulic cylinder,
Formula used:
A force (per unit area) that acts on any object is defined by pressure. Pressure on any object is calculated by using formula
Where,P = Pressure, F = Force and A = Area
Calculation:
Conclusion:
The pressure on the hydraulic cylinder is
(b)
To Calculate: The force exerted on this small cylinder to lift the automobile.
(b)
