    Liquid/hydrostatic pressure depends on the depth of the liquid and is transmitted equally throughout the liquid. Total pressure at a point in a liquid is due to atmospheric pressure plus the pressure due to the depth of the liquid. According to Pascal's law, in an enclosed liquid, a pressure change at any point is transmitted equally everywhere in the liquid due to liquids being incompressible. Applications of this principle include hydraulic brakes and jacks.

    Pressure

    Liquid/hydrostatic Pressure
    Liquid/hydrostatic pressure
    Atmospheric pressure
    Total pressure at a point in a liquid
    Communicating vessel principle
    Same level ,same continuous static liquid
    means same absolute/total pressure.

    Example 7: Barometer (used to measure atmospheric pressure)


    Example 8: Barometer
    Example 9: Manometer (used to measure gas pressure)
    Example 10: Siphon

    Suppose the liquid does not move


    Example 11: AS physics w15 p13 q19

    A B
    Pascal’s law

    In an enclosed liquid, a pressure change at any point is transmitted


    equally everywhere in the liquid.

    Derivation is based on the fact that a liquid is incompressible.
