Which of the following is the statement of the behaviour of enclosed liquids when a pressure is applied to them, which is known as Pascal’s principle? “When pressure is applied to an enclosed liquid that is at rest, the pressure:
In the liquid falls uniformly throughout the volume”.
Throughout the liquid is unchanged”.
In the liquid rises uniformly throughout the volume”.
In the liquid oscillates between a higher value and a lower value until the source of pressure is removed”.
In the liquid rises uniformly throughout the volume”.
Pascal’s states that the pressure is transmitted undiminished to all parts of the liquid and its container. That is, the pressure rises uniformly.
