Explanation:
It has many applications in daily life. Several devices, such as hydraulic lift and hydraulic brakes, are based on Pascal's law. Fluids are used for transmitting pressure in all these devices. In a hydraulic lift, as shown in the figure above, two pistons are separated by the space filled with a liquid.

According to Pascal’s Law,
“The external static pressure applied on a confined liquid is distributed or transmitted evenly throughout the liquid in all directions”.
Applications of Pascal’s Law
- Hydraulic Lift: The image you saw at the beginning of this article is a simple line diagram of a hydraulic lift. This is the principle of the working of hydraulic lift. It works based on the principle of equal pressure transmission throughout a fluid (Pascal’s Law).
- The construction is such that a narrow cylinder (in this case A) is connected to a wider cylinder (in this case B). They are fitted with airtight pistons on either end. The inside of the cylinders is filled with fluid that cannot be compressed.
- Pressure applied at piston A is transmitted equally to piston B without diminishing the use of the fluid that cannot be compressed. Thus, piston B effectively serves as a platform to lift heavy objects like big machines or vehicles. A few more applications include a hydraulic jack and hydraulic press, and forced amplification is used in the braking system of most cars.
