Compare the circuit symbol shown with the schematic diagram of the single-acting cylinder. Determine whether or not the two representations coincide with each other.
No
Yes
Which describes the set-up and mode of operation of the single-acting cylinder in question 1.
Retracted by air, extended by spring.
Extended by air, retracted by air.
Retracted by spring, extended by spring.
Extended by air, retracted by spring.
If a 3/2 way normally open valve is directly attached to the single acting cylinder in question 1 and not operated/pressed, it will;
Extend and then immediately retract.
Extend.
Do nothing.
Retract.
Compare the circuit symbol shown with the schematic diagram of the double-acting cylinder. Determine whether or not the two representations coincide with each other.
Yes
No
Taking the top answer as number 1 and the bottom as number 7, which of these correctly labels the double acting cylinder (without cushioning).

The characteristics of a single-acting and a double-acting cylinder design are similar, but different. Which answer below best reflects this.
Both cylinder designs include cylinder barrel, piston, spring and piston rod.
The double-acting cylinder has 2 supply ports.
Both cylinder designs include cylinder barrel, piston and piston rod.
The double-acting cylinder doesn’t have a return spring.
The double-acting cylinder has 2 supply ports.
Both cylinder designs include cylinder barrel, piston and piston rod.
The double-acting cylinder doesn’t have a return spring.
The single-acting cylinder has 2 supply ports.
Both cylinder designs include cylinder barrel, piston and piston rod.
The single-acting cylinder doesn’t have a return spring.
The double-acting cylinder has 2 supply ports.
Describe the mode of operation of a double-acting cylinder.
As opposed to a single-acting cylinder, less air is consumed. As the piston surfaces differ in size, the forces vary with identical pressure.
As opposed to a single-acting cylinder, more air is consumed. As the piston surfaces differ in size, the forces are identical.
As opposed to a single-acting cylinder, the same amount of air is consumed. As the piston surfaces differ in size, the forces are identical, but the pressure varies.
As opposed to a single-acting cylinder, more air is consumed. As the piston surfaces differ in size, the forces vary with identical pressure.
Which answer represents the operation of this 5/2 valve?
When the 5/2-way valve is not actuated, the return spring holds the valve in its operated position.
When the 5/2-way valve is not actuated, the return spring does nothing
When the 5/2-way valve is not actuated, the return spring holds the valve in its initial position.
Which describes the ports of the 5/2 way valve
1 is supplying port 2, port 3 is blocked and port 4 is venting through 5.
1 is supplying port 4, port 2 is blocked and port 3 is venting through 5.
1 is supplying port 2, port 4 is blocked and port 3 is venting through 5.
1 is supplying port 3, port 5 is blocked and port 4 is venting through 2.
1 is supplying port 5, port 2 is blocked and port 4 is venting through 3.
Which TWO answers correctly relate to indirect control.
Indirect control means someone else will do it.
Indirect control usually has high pressure control/high pressure operation.
Indirect control is safer
Indirect control requires electricity
Indirect control usually has low pressure control/high pressure operation.
Name this iconic album cover and band recreated in Lego (this has nothing to do with pneumatics, I'm just checking your music credibility)
The Rolling Stones/Hot Licks
Led Zeppelin/ IV
The Beatles/Sim Balk Lane
The Beach Boys/Animal sounds
The Beatles/Abbey Road
