1
Enroll in a college level physics course. If you are in high school, Advanced Placement physics is sufficient. Learning the hydraulic system in an academic setting gives you the benefit of a professor's direction and supervised laboratory work.
-
2
Purchase a college level physics text and workbook containing at least one section dedicated to applied physics. While it is not recommended, you may attempt to learn the hydraulic system independently. Read the text and perform the corresponding work for sections dedicated to pressure change effects.
