What Is Pascal"s Law Of Hydraulic Pressure?

Open in App
Solution

Pascal's Law states that pressure exerted inside a liquid is distributed equally in all directions everywhere such that its effect everywhere is the same. It also means that the increase in pressure at any point inside the liquid produces an increase in pressure of an equal amount everywhere inside it.

This law finds its use in making hydraulic machines.
