familiar fact is also recognized, for the velocityratio of /-* to ]V is 10 : \, or 40. Since in any machine theweight equals the power multiplied by the velocity ratio, TV= Px 40, and when P=l pound, IV = 40 pounds. 982. This principle is made use of in the hydraulicpress represented in Fig. IGG.… … Fig. 166. it to rise, thus lifting the platform K, and compressing thebales. If the area of ^ be 1 square inch, and that of Che 100square inches, the velocity ratio will be 100. If the length of the lever between the hand and the ful-crum is 10 times the length between the fulcrum and thepiston a,…
