State Pascal's law and mention its applications
Answers
Answer:
Pascal’s Principle reminds us that, for a fluid of uniform pressure, the force exerted on a small area in contact with the fluid will be smaller than the force exerted on a large area. Thus, a small force applied to a small area in a fluid can create a large force on a larger area. This is the principle behind hydraulic machinery.
Explanation:
A typical application of Pascal's principle for gases and liquids is the automobile lift seen in many service stations (the hydraulic jack). Increased air pressure produced by an air compressor is transmitted through the air to the surface of oil in an underground reservoir.
This is the principle of 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
