    The document contains 33 multiple choice questions testing knowledge of basic hydraulic principles and components. Key points covered include that a balanced vane pump uses an elliptical cam ring, pressure drop can result from elbows, reducers, pipe length or all of the above, and changing the angle of a swashplate can change the displacement of a piston pump. The questions assess understanding of pumps, motors, pressure, flow, efficiency and basic hydraulic physics.
