    Increase in pressure at one point of the enclosed liquid in equilibrium or rest is transmitted equally to all other points of liquid, illustrates:

    A) buoyant force                  

    B) Pascal's law

    C) gravitational law              

    D) electrostatic law

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Pascal's law states that in a body of equally dense fluid at rest, the pressure is the same for all points in the fluid so long as those points  are at the same depth below the fluid's surface. Pascal's law gives the fluid pressure at mechanical equilibrium on which only gravity forces are taken into account.
