Pascal's Principle

How does Pascal's Principle relate to fluid pressure?

Pascal's principle states that for all points at the same absolute height in a connected body of an incompressible fluid at rest, the fluid pressure is the same, even if additional pressure is applied on the fluid at some place.

It defines fluid pressure. It states that if pressure is applied to a fluid, then the pressure will be transferred evenly throughout the liquid to all of the walls of the container that the liquid is in.

The principle defines fluid pressure. If pressure is applied to a liquid, the pressure will be evenly distributed within that liquid to the walls of the structure that fluid is in. THE END

Pascal's principle states that by applying pressure to a confined liquid, the pressure is transmitted, without loss, throughout the entire liquid and to the walls of the container.
