Q: Select the answer that best describes what a " Power Input Device" is.
- This is the pump that provides pneumatic power to the system. In pneumatics, this pump is called an air compressor. The air compressor draws air from the atmosphere, compresses it, and pushes it into the supply line.
- Valves control direction, pressure and flow rate of the pressurized air of the pneumatic system
- This is where the pneumatic power is converted to mechanical power. These output devices are called actuators. Two types of actuators are motors and cylinders. The motor creates rotary motion as the air flows through it. The cylinder creates straight-line motion when air flows into it

Q: Select the answer that best describes what a "Control Device" is.
- This is where the pneumatic power is converted to mechanical power. These output devices are called actuators. Two types of actuators are motors and cylinders. The motor creates rotary motion as the air flows through it. The cylinder creates straight-line motion when air flows into it
- Valves control direction, pressure, and flow-rate of the pressurized air of the pneumatic system
- This is our power conducting medium. Typically, this is air from the atmosphere, but other gases are used sometimes.
A: Valves control direction, pressure, and flow-rate of the pressurized air of the pneumatic system

Q: Select the answer that best describes what a "Conductor" is.
- This is where the pneumatic power is converted to mechanical power. These output devices are called actuators. Two types of actuators are motors and cylinders. The motor creates rotary motion as the air flows through it. The cylinder creates straight-line motion when air flows into it.
- Valves control direction, pressure, and flow-rate of the pressurized air of the pneumatic system.
- To transmit the air, conductors (pipes, tubes, or hoses) are needed. The main line in a pneumatic system is called the supply line. The supply line provides a flow of air to the actuators.
