Introduction to Hydraulics

Which of the following statements explains fluid power.

• Fluid power is the method of using pressurized fluid to transmit energy

• Fluid power is the method of using pressurized fluid to transmit motion.

• Fluid power is the method of using pressurized fluid to transmit machines

• Fluid power is the method of using pressurized air to transmit energy

What are the two branches of Fluid Power.

• Pneumatics and Hydrogen

• Pneumatics and Horsepower

• Pneumatics and Hydraulics

• Pneumatics and Horoscops

Hydraulic systems use ________ to transfer force from one point to another.

• Air

• Liquid

• Solid

• Gas

Pneumatic systems use compressed _________ to transfer force.

• Metal

• Liquid

• Solid

• Gas/Air

Air is compressible and liquid is incompressible.

• True

• False

If an object is compressible it can be squeezed to fit into a smaller space than it normally does.

• True

• False

If an object is in-compressible it can also be forced to fit into a space smaller than it usually occupies.

• True

• False

An example of a compressible object is a _______________ & an example of an in-compressible object is a ______________
