Hydraulic systems operate by means of?

  1. Electricity

  2. Water

  3. Air pressure

  4. Solar power

The correct answer is: Water

Hydraulic systems operate using the force of a fluid, usually water or oil, to move and manipulate different mechanical components. This allows for a smooth transfer of energy, making it an efficient way to power machinery and equipment. While electricity, air pressure, and solar power can all be used to generate energy, they are not the main operating force in a hydraulic system.
