Q2. An operator makes 15 complete cycles in 15 s interval using the hand pump shown in Fig.
Each complete cycle consists of two pump strokes (intake and power). The pump has a piston of
diameter 30 mm and the load cylinder has a piston of diameter 150 mm. The average hand
force is 100 N during each power stroke.
(b) How many cycles are required to lift the load by 500 mm, assuming no oil leakage? The
pump piston has 20 mm stroke.
