A hydraulic device which uses the impact or kinetic energy in a liquid to transmit power is called a _______ device. A) Hydrostatic B) Hydrodynamic C) Kinetic
D) Pressure
B) Hydrodynamic pg 28
When a device is operated by pressure on a confined fluid, it is called a _______ device, pressure being the force per unit area (lbs/sq in or PSI).
A) Hydrostatic B) Hydrodynamic C) Kinetic
D) Pressure
A) Hydrostatic pg28
The tendency to cause flow (or to push) may be supplied by a mechanical pump or maybe caused simply by the _____ of fluid.
A) Pressure B) Flow C) Weight D) Power
C) Weight pg28
Pressure per square inch which is created by the height of the fluid is called______. This varies with the type of fluid being considered depending upon its weight per cubic foot (density). A) Pressure Head B) Power C) Flow rate D) Effort
A) Pressure Head pg 29
Atmospheric pressure = ______ pounds per square inch absolute.
A) 1.47 B) 14.7 C) 4.47 D) 44.7
B) 14.7 (Atmospheric pressure is 14.7 psi) pg 30
The pressure at the top of the barometer tube is? A) 0 PSI B) 1 PSI C) 30 PSI D) 29 PSI
A) 0 PSI pg 30 & 32
30 PSIG = ______ PSIA. A) 1.47 B) 14.7 C) 4.47 D) 44.7
D) 44.7 30 + 14.7 = 44.7
PSIA = Gauge + Atmosphere
PSIG = Gauge Pressure
Atmosphere = 14.7 pg 32

A) Flow pg 34
Working pressure at the pump outlet is the sum of the ______ created by fluid friction within the piping and system components and the pressure needed to perform the work required. A) Force B) Power C) Pressure D) Rate
C) Pressure pg 35
When the particles of the fluid move parallel to each other and to the walls of the pipe, flow is said to be? A) Kinetic B) Turbulent C) Laminar D) Atmospheric
C) Laminar pg 36
Abrupt changes in flow direction or too high a velocity of the fluid may cause _____ flow. A) Laminar B) Turbulent C) Kinetic D) Inward
B) Turbulent pg 36
