Why are liquids well suited for hydraulics? Liquids have low densities. Liquids are incompressible. Liquids change volume easily. Liquids have few molecules.

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is known that liquids are incompressible in nature as they occupy the shape of container in which they are placed. Though they retain their constant volume but liquid molecules do not have any effect of pressure upon them.

Therefore, they are independent of pressure.

Thus, we can conclude that liquids are incompressible and well suited for hydraulics.

Answer : Option B) Liquids are incompressible.

Explanation :

The liquids are well suite for hydraulics because they are incompressible in nature. As liquid conforms to the shape of its container it is stored in but retains an nearly approximately constant volume which is independent of pressure. This makes the liquid best option to be used for hydraulics.
