The axial pump is a pump in which fluid flows axially to the rotation of the propeller. In Axial flow, the fluid flows parallel to the axis of rotation, as in a turbine. Axial flow pump contains a propeller or centrifugal impeller in the casing. Axial Flow pump is preferred for flood control and irrigation applications.

Slip of a reciprocating pump is defined as  Difference of theoretical discharge and actual discharge.

Jacks can be categorized based on mechanical and hydraulic forces.

The shaft in the floor jack is horizontal. Hence option B is correct.

Hydraulic jacks use pump plungers to move oil through two cylinders.

Two types of hydraulic jacks are commonly used- bottle jacks and floor jacks.

It is true that an enclosed fluid under pressure exerts that pressure throughout its volume and against any surface containing it.

In the vacuum suspended system, the brakes are applied when atmospheric pressure is applied to one side of diaphram.

Force required        $F = PA$    

In a vacuum suspended unit, when the brakes are on , the piston and diaphragm has on both sides of it Atmospheric pressure.
