Hydraulic presses, hydraulic brakes, and hydraulic door closers are applications based on ______
A
Newton's law
B
Surface tension
C
Pascal's principle
D
Centrifugal force
Correct Option:
C
Explanation
Hydraulic presses, brakes and hydraulic door mechanisms operate through Pascal’s principle: pressure applied to a confined fluid is transmitted undiminished throughout the fluid. A small force on a small piston can therefore generate a much larger force on a larger piston.
