NAVEDTRA 14105A, FLUID POWER
EXAM QUESTIONS AND
ANSWERRS 100% PASS
How can the specific gravity of a liquid or solid be expressed?
• As a ratio between the weight of the substance and the density of a volume of water
• As a ratio between the weight of the substance and the weight of an equal volume of
water
• As the number that shows the density of the substance in the metric system
• As in 2 and 3 above - ✔✔As a ratio between the weight of the substance and the
weight of an equal volume of water
The purpose of your textbook Fluid Power is to provide you with
• information on fluid power application for specific equipment
• a basic reference concerning fundamentals of fluid power
• a basic guide for use in maintaining hydraulic equipment

,• a reference concerning advanced concepts of fluid power - ✔✔a basic reference
concerning fundamentals of fluid power
A device used for measuring the specific gravity of a liquid is known as a
• hydrometer
• hydroscope
• hydrostat
• hydrography - ✔✔hydrometer
The critical factors affecting the state of matter are
• density and specific gravity
• pressure and density
• pressure and temperature
• temperature and weight - ✔✔pressure and density
The study of hydraulics was originally confined to the study of the physical behavior of
water at rest and in motion. The term "hydraulics" now includes the physical behavior
of all

,• gases
• liquids
• liquids gases and solids
• liquids and gases - ✔✔liquids
The head or pressure due to the weight of a fluid depends on the density of the fluid
and the
• area of the bottom surface of the container
• vertical height of the fluid
• geometric shape of the container
• total volume of the fluid - ✔✔area of the bottom surface of the container
Pressure can be measured in terms of force per unit area.

, • differences of floating and submerged bodies
• construction of aqueducts
• transmission of force in confined fluids
• use of water wheels for doing work - ✔✔transmission of force in confined fluids
What change if any will occur in the volume and weight of a substance if its
temperature changes?
• Its weight will change but its volume will remain constant
• Its volume will change but its weight will remain constant
• Both its volume and weight will be unaffected
• Both its volume and weight will change - ✔✔Its volume will change, but its weight
will remain constant
Which statement about specific gravity is false?
• Specific gravity of a substance should be measured at a standardized temperature and
pressure
