Dear student

Lifting of automobile in service stations is based on principle of hydraulic press.
A hydraulic lift for automobiles is an example of a force multiplied by hydraulic press, based on Pascal's principle. The fluid in the small cylinder must be moved much further than the distance the car is lifted.
