Explain with the aid of diagram the action of the hydraulic press The following data pertains to a hydraulic press: The diameters of the plunger and ram are 50 mm and 0.5 m respectively. The ram is 1.75 m below the plunger and the mass density of the liquid in the hydraulic press is 820 kg/m³. The mass of the plunger and the ram are 6 kg and 400 kg respectively. The plunger is forced vertically down by a lever with a mechanical advantage of 6 to 1 onto which a force of 800 N is applied. The ram moves upwards when the plunger moves downwards. Determine the maximum lifting force exerted by the ram.
