Answer:
option (b)
Explanation:
According to the Pascal's law
F / A = f / a
Where, F is the force on ram, A be the area of ram, f be the force on plunger and a be the area of plunger.
Diameter of ram, D = 20 cm, R = 20 / 2 = 10 cm
A = π R^2 = π x 100 cm^2
F = 3 tons = 3000 kgf
diameter of plunger, d = 3 cm, r = 1.5 cm
a = π x 2.25 cm^2
Use Pascal's law
3000 / π x 100 = f / π x 2.25
f = 67.5 Kgf
