The piston of a hydraulic automobile lift is 0.290m in diameter?
it will not hurt the motor but it will kill your blades
Force due to pressure: F PA pressure*area A .25*pi*0.29^2 0.0661 m^2 Force due to gravity: F ma 1150*9.81 11280 N These forces will need to be in equillibrium to lift the car: 11280 0.0661*P P 170700 N/m 1 Pa 1 N/m P 170700 Pascal To convert to atm we know that the atmospheric pressure is 100kPa 100000 Pa The gauge pressure in atm is: 170700/100000 1.707 atm Please don't forget to choose a best answer.
