The area of cross section of press plung...

The area of cross section of press plunger of a hydraulic press is `4 m^2`. It is required to overcome a resistiveload of 400 kg on it. Calculate the force required on the pump plunger if the area of cross section of the pump plunger is `0.01 m^2`.

To solve the problem, we will use the principle of hydraulic systems, which states that the pressure applied on one side of a hydraulic system is transmitted equally to the other side. This can be expressed mathematically as: \[ \frac{F_1}{A_1} = \frac{F_2}{A_2} \] Where: - \( F_1 \) is the force applied on the pump plunger, ...
