Question: 8 . The symbol at right represents a device called: a . Directional control valve b . Pressure relieve valve c . Pressure reducing valve

8. The symbol at right represents a device called:
a. Directional control valve
b. Pressure relieve valve
c. Pressure reducing valve
d. Flow control valve
9.(10 points) Which of the following two hydraulic circuits uses the pressure relieve valve correctly? Explain Whe?
10.(20 points) A hydraulic pump is used to drive a conveyor belt system for transporting heavy metal components. The system operates continuously, and the pump is powered by an electric motor. The following specifications are:
Electric motor output torque: \(120\mathrm{lb}-\mathrm{ft}\)
Pump displacement volume: \(5\mathrm{in}^{3}\)
Pump output flow rate: 30 GPM, pressure: 1500 psi , speed: 1800 rpm
Calculate: (Note: maintain 2 digits after the decimal point)
a) the volumetric efficiency of the pump
b) the mechanical efficiency of the pump
c) theoretical torque required to drive this pump in lb- ft
d) overall efficiency of the pump
11.(20 points) A hydrostatic transmission operating at \( P_{1}=1500\) psi pressure (pump output pressure),\( P_{2}=10\) psi (motor output pressure) has the following characteristics
