PASCAL'S LAW

 In the 1600's, the French scientist Blaise Pascal discovered a fact now known as Pascal's Law.
 Pascal's Principle is used to quantitatively relate the pressure at two points in an incompressible,
static fluid.
 It states that pressure is transmitted, undiminished, in a closed static fluid.
 Through the application of Pascal's Principle, a static liquid can be utilized to generate a large
output force using a much smaller input force, yielding important devices such as hydraulic
presses.
 Pascal’s Law states that pressure at any point in a body of fluid is the same in every direction,
exerting equal force on equal areas. This works for gases and liquids (both are fluids).
 Pascal’s Formula:
P = Pressure, F = Force and A = Area
This expresses that Pressure is Force per Unit Area.
