Detailed Solution

According to Pascal's law pressure applied in an enclosed fluid is transmitted undiminished in all directions.
According to Pascal's law, pressure applied in an enclosed fluid is transmitted evenly in all directions. The devices like hydraulic lifts and hydraulic brakes work on this principle.
Pressure is directly proportional to the density of the liquid ρ, acceleration due to gravity g and depth of the liquid from the free surface of the liquid h.
This can be written as
= ρgh
Suppose the pressure increases with the depth from the free surface of the liquid. Consequently, liquid comes out with greater pressure.
