Force - A push or pull acting upon a body. In a hydraulic cylinder, it is the product of the pressure on the fluid, multiplied by the effective area of the cylinder piston. It is measured in pounds or tons. Friction - The resistance to fluid flow in a hy- draulic system.
temperature increase The pressure of a contained sample of gas can be increased by increasing its temperature, or by decreasing its volume, or by injecting additional mas â¦ s into it.
Likewise, if volume decreases, pressure increases. Pressure and volume are inversely related (P = k/V). Therefore, the pressure in the one-liter container (one-half the volume of the two-liter container) would be twice the pressure in the two-liter container.
