What does a graduated cylinder measure?

Back

A graduated cylinder measures volume.

Front

How does cooling temperature affect the flow rate of syrup?

Back

Cooling the temperature would decrease the flow rate of syrup.

Front

What is a hydraulic system?

Back

A hydraulic system is a technology that uses liquid under pressure to transmit force.

Front

What is a pneumatic system?

Back

A pneumatic system is a technology that uses compressed air or gas to transmit force.

Front

What is pressure in the context of hydraulics and pneumatics?

Back

Pressure is the force applied per unit area in a fluid.

Front

What is the formula for calculating density?

Back

Density = Mass / Volume.

Front

What happens to gas pressure when the volume decreases?

Back

When the volume decreases, the gas pressure increases.
