they both make things easier to do. one uses cylinders and fluid to make a force the other uses mechanics.

What other oil can you put in a hydraulic jack?
Power steering sealer and conditioner fluid.
What is non-hydraulic cement?
Non-hydraulic cements include such materials as (non-hydraulic) lime and gypsum plasters, which must be kept dry in order to gain strength, and oxychloride cements, which have liquid components. Lime mortars, for example, "set" only by drying out, and gain strength only very slowly by absorption of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to re-form calcium carbonate through carbonization.
What does SAE mean on a flange?
It's a standard hydraulic flange. SAE = Society of Automotive Engineers.
What does the 231 in the rpm equation for hydraulic displacement mean?
231 refers to the number of cubic inches (in3) per gallon of volume.
What is a water engineer called?
Water engineer is a generic title given to engineers who specialise in water-based projects; many have a civil engineering or environmental background. They may work with a variety of different liquids but generally deal with the provision of clean water, disposal of waste water and sewage, and prevention of flood damage.
What does a hydraulic system increase using pascal's principle?
mechanical advantage
What will increase the actual mechanical advantage of a machine?
Common mechanisms for obtaining mechanical advantage would include such as multiple pulleys, hydraulic systems, gears, and levers.
Is a forklift a pulley?
A forklift generally gets it mechanical advantage from hydraulic rams, not pulley systems...
What is differences between mechanical and hydraulic brakes?
mechanical and hydraulic are two different power transmission medium. in mechanical brakes solid links or levers are used to achieve the required braking. in hydraulic brakes there are no links, here the braking is achieved by the hydraulic fluid, the hydraulic system in which the force applied at the brake pedal is multiplied several times to achieve the requied braking.
Is force the same thing as mechanical advantage?
No. You'll never see a bathroom scale that says your mechanical advantage is 140 pounds. The mechanical advantage of a device like a lever or a hydraulic jack is a measure of how the force changes between the input of the device and its output.
What is the similarities between hydraulic pump and hydraulic motor?
Mechanically, they're very similar - in some instances, mostly the same. The difference is in their function - a pump will convert mechanical energy to fluid energy, whereas a motor will convert fluid energy to mechanical energy.
What makes a floor jack stay up?
A scissor jack uses a fine threaded screw and mechanical advantage to lift a vehicle. A hydraulic jack uses hydraulic fluid, a pump, and a cylinder to lift the car.
What is the advantage of hydraulic clutch linkage over a mechanical cable linkage?
It seems that mechanical linkage has less probabilities of damages or malfunction because it's simpler than hydraulic systems.Hydraulic systems are self adjusting. (The self adjusting system may become inoperative or damaged too)
Hydraulic or mechanical lifters in 1970 250 6-cylinder?
Hydraulic, from the factory.
What is hydraulic motor?
A hydraulic motor is actuated by the hydraulic fluid which is pumped into it, and will use this fluid energy to turn a shaft or mechanical gearset, thus converting fluid energy into mechanical energy.
How the correlation between hydraulic motor and hydraulic pump?
Internally, they're pretty much the same. The difference is the operation expected of it - a hydraulic pump converts mechanical energy to fluid energy, whereas a hydraulic motor converts hydraulic energy to mechanical energy.
What is a hydrostatic system?
Hydrostatic systems take the mechanical rotary output of an engine or electric motor and convert it to a hydraulic source of power using a hydraulic pump. The hydraulic power is converted back to mechanical power using a hydraulic motor
