Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

pressure is exerted on fluid enclosed in a vessel is

transmitted equally in all directions. This fact was first time discovered by Pascal and is

Answer:

Pascal's law basically states that any pressure applied to a fluid inside a closed system will transmit that pressure equally in all directions throughout the fluid. This law is the basic principle that causes hydraulic power in heavy construction machines to work.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pascal's law states that a pressure applied to a fluid in a closed container is transmitted equally to every point of the fluid and the walls of the container, as seen in Equation 2. P = F / A (Equation 2) Where P is the pressure, F is the force, and A is the area.
