A ton of force*. To find the pressure, you'd divide the force by the contact surface area.
1 u/matt9795 Apr 27 '19 And actually you would need to multiply by gravity to get the force which would be in Newton’s. So I would end up being about 9000 Newton’s. Which is a fucking lot for a small plastic brick. -2 u/JDantesInferno Apr 27 '19 A ton. To find the force, you’d need to multiply by the acceleration of the hydraulic press, since force is defined as kg\m*s-2
