EDP(022/5/25): Fluid Power Systems Quiz

What is the role of pressure in fluid power systems?

• It creates heat in the system.

• It exerts force over a specific area.

• It reduces the volume of fluid.

• It increases the speed of the actuator.

What does flow determine in a fluid power system?

• The temperature of the fluid.

• The color of the fluid.

• The speed of the actuator's movement.

• The pressure in the system.

How is mechanical advantage achieved in fluid power systems?

• By increasing the temperature.

• By using larger pumps.

• By utilizing different sizes of pistons or cylinders.

• By reducing the fluid flow.

What is created when pressure and flow are combined in a fluid power system?

• Electrical energy

• Chemical reaction

• Mechanical motion

• Thermal expansion

How is the energy transmission in a fluid power system similar to how a lever works?
