|
|
Hydraulic system is considered to be |
Incompressible |
Compressible or incompressible |
|
|
The pressure excerted by a column of liquid is determined by the |

|
|
Pascal's law for transmitting hydraulic power |
Pressure in a Closed system is transmitted equally and Undiminished to all parts of the system |
|
|
|
Force per unit area Is a measure of |
Pressure |
|
|
|
The relationship between force, area, and pressure may be expressed using the formula |
Force = Area X pressure |
|
|
|
In a hydraulic system the relationship between the area of the Piston, the distance it moves, And the volume of the fluid displaced may be expressed using the formula |
Volume = area X distance |
|
