there are three basic means of power transmission
mechanical
electrical and
fluid power
All these three are power transmission mediums
mechanical - short distance very advantageous.
electrical - long distance eg: hundreds of kilometres of electric grids.
hydraulics - greater distance than the mechanical and shorter than the electrical
They mostly substitute the mechanical power transmitters.
Here there are no moving links as in mechanical medium only moving medium that is fluid.
very high force multiplication possible.
only fluid power capable of giving constant force or torque output at various speeds.
they have very high power to weight ratio than there mechanical counterparts.
a simple, compact, reliable, safe system possible only with fluid power.
their control is very simple.
An Hydraulic system (and a pneumatic one as well) is simply a system using fluid to transfer energy from one point to another.
When I press the brake pedal, the brake cylinders at the wheels operate. Coupled together by an hydraulic system.
Depending on the system it could be any liquid. Some older metering systems actually used Mercury as a motive fluid (its expansion ability, and its weight for vacuum systems made it very useful without using pumps). Most hydraulic systems use oil, of one type or another. And high volume systems use water.
Hydraulics can be used basically everywhere in day to day life. They are used in your heart, in car brakes, in water pistels and also in vehicles like diggers and cranes.
Mainly vehicles, has to do with engineering.
Hydraulics are used in air planes, cars, boats, constructional machines.
in hydraulic system pascals law can be used
Hydraulic system is used to swim
head is the term used for energy in hydraulics
Hydraulics
Hydraulics are used in many application from your brakes in your car to large industrial machines. Hydraulics refers to a fluid system mainly used to generate a motion like controling a hydraulic cylinder (ram) or hydraulic motor. This system normally run on a type of oil.
Yes. They are used in wheels and...stuff....
Liquid is needed to use hydraulics. It's what makes hydraulics work.

Vehicles have hydralics, basically most things that are related to engineering can be used or somehow linked to hydraulics.

Solids do not flow at room temperature, so they are not practical for use in hydraulics. When a gas like air is used in a system similar to hydraulics, it is called pneumatics. Sometimes hydraulic systems use both, like in an automobile lift.
They are used by vehicals, engineering. They are used when vehicals move etc. They 'bounce'.
Nowhere As of now!
Fluid in motion or fluid in rest. (both can be used)
You don't need it but it looks really cool when used.
liquids are easier to move.
