The piston of a hydraulic ram is 40 cm diameter, and the piston rod 6 cm diameter.
The water pressure is I MN/m?. Estimate the stress in the piston rod and the
elongation of a length of I m of the rod when the piston is under pressure from the
piston-rod side. Take Young's modulus of elasticity as E = 200 GN/m2
