Why are liquids used in hydraulics instead of gasses?
Liquids are used in hydraulics instead of gases because liquids are nearly incompressible, ensuring consistent force transmission. Gases, on the other hand, are compressible, leading to fluctuations in pressure and decreased efficiency in hydraulic systems. Additionally, liquids provide better lubrication and cooling properties compared to gases.
Are liquids and gases good insulators?
Liquids and gases are generally poor insulators compared to solids because their particles are more disordered and have higher thermal conductivity, allowing heat to transfer more easily. However, some gases like air can be used as insulators in certain applications, such as double-pane windows, where pockets of air help reduce heat transfer. Liquids are less commonly used as insulators due to their lower thermal resistance compared to gases and solids.
Why cant cars be made of liquids and gases?
Liquids and gases have no fixed shape and no structural strength; they cannot support anything by themselves. Gas, however, does have some applicability in transportation, since it can be used to inflate balloons or zeppelins with which you can travel by air. But this only works because of the balloon envelope, which is made of a solid material that contains the gas.
What can ultrasonic units penetrate?
Ultrasonic units can penetrate solids, liquids, and gases, depending on the frequency used. Higher frequency ultrasonic waves penetrate shallow tissues or liquids, while lower frequency waves can penetrate deeper tissues or solids.
Why can't a gas be used in a hydraulic pipe instead of a liquid?
gasses can compress, so a hydraulic pipe would be useless. In fact, the hydraulic pipe was invented just for water, hence the "hydra" part. Liquids cannot compress, instead they push out, so they are great for machines ( like brake fluid).

What are the three qualifications used to describe matter?
solids liquids and gases
What mixture that can not be separated by filtering?
Filtering is used to separe solids from gases or liquids.
What can be used to weigh solids liquids or gases?
you can use a scale for weight, a beaker or measuring cup for liquid, and for gases idk
Why are liquids used in hydraulic brakes instead of grease?
You could use grease, but then you'd need a lot more force just to push the grease through the system. A runnier liquid is easier to move around.
How is the soloubility of gases in liquied used in industry?
The solubility of gases in liquids is used in various industries for processes like carbonation in the beverage industry, oxygenation in water treatment plants, and in extraction techniques such as supercritical fluid extraction. This property allows for the efficient transfer of gases into liquids for specific applications.
Are both gases and liquids fluids?
yes, gases and liquids are fluids. this term is usually used when referring to resistance since frictio occurs in solids.
Can this method be used for gases?
It depends on the specific method you are referring to. Some methods can be used for gases, while others are designed for liquids or solids. It's important to check the applicability of the method to gases before use.
Are liquids and gases not materials?
Solids, liquids, and gases are all forms of materials. Only solids are used as building materials (although even then, one could argue, cement is poured in liquid form before it solidifies).
What is beakers?
Beakers hold solids or liquids that will not release gases when reacted or are unlikely to splatter if stirred or heated.
What is the uses of pipettes?
Pipettes are used for measuring and transferring small amounts of liquids in an experiment.
What are the symbols used to represent gases liquids solids and aqueous solutions in chemical equations?
Placing a (g), (l), (s), or (aq) after the substances, respectively.
