AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem of finding the area of the larger piston in a hydraulic press, we can use the principle of hydraulics, which states that the pressure applied on one piston is transmitted equally to the other piston. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Given Values:** - Area of the smaller piston, \( A_1 = 5 \, \text{cm}^2 \) - Force applied on the smaller piston, \( F_1 = 150 \, \text{kgf} \) - Weight raised by the larger piston, \( F_2 = 900 \, \text{kgf} \) ...
