🔍 Key Concepts

• suction lift vs. dynamic (velocity) head in different pump types • How centrifugal, propeller/axial-flow, jet, and reciprocating pumps move liquid • Which pumps create flow by displacement versus by increasing velocity and pressure

💭 Think About

• Think about which type of pump traps a fixed volume of liquid and then moves it, relying on suction to draw new liquid in. • Consider which pumps mainly rely on high-speed rotating elements to fling or push water, rather than "sucking" it in. • For each choice, ask yourself: does this pump’s main principle depend on suction at the inlet, or on adding velocity/energy to water already at the inlet?

✅ Before You Answer

• For each option, classify it as positive-displacement or dynamic; the suction-force principle is most associated with one of these categories. • Picture where the inlet vacuum (low pressure) is created: inside a cylinder, at an impeller, along a jet, or in an axial-flow propeller. • Verify which pump type is traditionally explained in basic fluid mechanics as working by creating a partial vacuum that atmospheric pressure then fills.
