A
Only felt at the point of application
B
Lost as heat
C
Transmitted equally in all directions
D
Absorbed by the container
Correct Answer: Option C — Transmitted equally in all directions
Explanation:
Pascal's principle states that pressure applied at any point in a confined, incompressible fluid is transmitted undiminished and equally thr...
Pascal's principle states that pressure applied at any point in a confined, incompressible fluid is transmitted undiminished and equally throughout the entire fluid in all directions, forming the basis of hydraulic systems.
