Answer:

D. are transmitted equally through a fluid

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Blaise Pascal discovered the Pascal's principle which states that the pressure applied to a fluid at a point inside a closed system will be transmitted equally in all directions through out the fluid.
  • Pascal's principle has a wide range of application, for example in hydraulics such as car brakes which is the most used hydraulic system. The fluid used must be in compressible.
