both, if it pumps liquid then it's hydraulic, if it pumps gas it is pneumatic
both pneumatic & hydraulic systems are applications of fluid powers
its hydraulic.
These have to do with the hydraulic density. In automobile, the density increases therefore making the hydraulic ratio to displace more than any hydraulic ratio in a displacement.
Fluid power comes in two forms: hydraulic and pneumatic. The pump in an hydraulic system is a flow source, delivering a set amount of fluid every revolution. Pressure is an effect due to restriction on flow in the circuit. If the oil delivered by the pump is used to operate a cylinder, the pressure that develops is due to load on the piston. If the pressure required to move the load on the cylinder is greater than the setting of the relief valve, the piston will not move and all the oil will pass through the relief valve. Also, when the piston has moved to the end of the stroke, it cannot move any further, however the oil delivered by the pump goes over the relief valve. If there wasn't a relief valve, the pressure will build up until the oil from the pump can flow somewhere: by bursting a hose or breaking the pump or cylinder.
There is no opposite. Hydraulic refers to liquid; an alternative would be "pneumatic,' which refers to gas.
Pneumatic. Pneu = Air. Hydra = liquid
You can use a hydraulic pump pushing a large piston.
You can use a hydraulic pump pushing a large piston.
Single-acting devices consist of a large plunger, or piston, into which oil (or air in a pneumatic cylinder) is pumped.

Mechanical pressure from the primary piston
its hydraulic.
An axial piston pump is a positive displacement pump that has a number of pistons in a circular array within a cylinder block. It can be used as a stand-alone pump, a hydraulic motor or an automotive air conditioning compressor.A radial piston pump is a form of hydraulic pump. The working pistons extend in a radial direction symmetrically around the drive shaft, in contrast to the axial piston pump.
It depends on the dam. Some dams are hydraulic and some are pneumatic. Short answer: Both
The hydraulic piston pump is a part, which is common in trucks. It is located below the gearbox, near the chassis of the truck. It is an essential part, therefore if it is broken, the truck will not move.
it is due to to the pressure and suction of water
Difficult question to answer without context. Key thing to understand is a pneumatic system uses a compressor, whereas a hydraulic system uses a pump. Hydraulic fluid is essentially incompressible, whereas compressed air will fill any volume. Ask yourself: What is my pneumatic/hydraulic system supposed to do? How fast should it react and what horsepower is available to drive my compressor/pump? What force do I need at my actuator/motor or whatever the system is expected to power? Generally, I think pneumatic systems can react more quickly but power density is lower, so if the load is very high a hydraulic system might be better. A typical shop pneumatic system might only operate at 50psi, whereas a hydraulic system can operate at 3000psi. Finally, it's also worth thinking about system safety: if a pneumatic component fails, there will be an explosive decompression, but if a hydraulic component fails, it will leak but will not explode because hydraulic fluid does not store energy, it only transmits it.
