There are at least three kinds:
- hydraulic jack: A pump with a small-diameter piston and cylinder is operated to produce hydraulically pressurised liquid. This liquid is directed again a large piston. Since this piston is larger that the one in the pump, although the force acting on, say, a square centimetre is the same the overall force is much larger and great enough to lift a car.
- scissor jack: The jack is in the form of a four-sided figure with hinges at the corners. A screw is mounted horizontally so that it can rotate at one corner of the square and turn inside a thread at the opposite corner. As the screw tightens it pulls the opposite sides of the four-sided figure together forcing the top of the figure up.
- rack-and-pinion jack: The jack consists of a long, large diameter screw with a threaded hook on it. As the screw is turned the hook is pulled up.

How hydraulics are developed in car jacks?
Hydraulics in car jacks work on the principle of Pascal's law, which states that pressure applied to a fluid in a confined space is transmitted equally in all directions. A car jack uses a hydraulic system consisting of a pump, cylinder, and piston. When the pump handle is operated, it forces hydraulic fluid into the cylinder, which causes the piston to move and lift the car. The hydraulic system allows for the multiplication of force, enabling the car jack to effortlessly lift heavy vehicles.
