Pascal's Principle

Pascal's Principle

Force used on confined fluid, pressure changes equally transmitted to other fluid parts

Different Surface Areas=Force Multiplies fromLeft Piston to Right Piston

Same Surface Areas = Same Amount of Force Experienced by Pistons

Piston = A disk or small cylinder used in a hydraulic device to create motion and power
