Mechanical Advantage of Hydraulic Press Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Mechanical Advantage of Hydraulic Press = Area of Hydraulic Ram/Area of Plunger of Hydraulic Press
Ma = A/a
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Mechanical Advantage of Hydraulic Press - Mechanical Advantage of Hydraulic Press is the ratio of the force exerted on the piston with the smaller area to the force exerted on the piston with the larger area.
Area of Hydraulic Ram - (Measured in Square Meter) - Area of hydraulic ram is defined as the area covered by the ram in which a piston or plunger is displaced by the pressure of a fluid.
Area of Plunger of Hydraulic Press - (Measured in Square Meter) - Area of Plunger of Hydraulic Press is the cross-sectional area of the plunger or the piston of an hydraulic press.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Area of Hydraulic Ram: 0.0154 Square Meter --> 0.0154 Square Meter No Conversion Required
Area of Plunger of Hydraulic Press: 0.000346 Square Meter --> 0.000346 Square Meter No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
Ma = A/a --> 0.0154/0.000346
Evaluating ... ...
Ma = 44.5086705202312
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
44.5086705202312 --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
44.5086705202312 44.50867 <-- Mechanical Advantage of Hydraulic Press
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
