Pascal's principle states that when pressure is applied to a fluid in a confined space, the pressure change is transmitted equally in all directions throughout the fluid. This principle allows for the operation of hydraulic systems which use fluids to transmit force. The principle is based on the concept of incompressibility of fluids.

Pascal's principle states that pressure applied to a confined fluid is transmitted undiminished in every direction throughout the fluid.
Pascal's principle states that pressure applied to a confined fluid will be transmitted undiminished to all portions of the fluid and to the walls of its container.
Pascal's principle is applied in hydraulic systems, such as braking systems in vehicles and hydraulic lifts. It states that a change in pressure applied to a confined fluid is transmitted undiminished to all portions of the fluid and to the walls of its container.
Pascal's principle deals with fluids, which can be either liquids or gases. It describes how changes in pressure applied to a confined fluid are transmitted uniformly in all directions within the fluid.
Force is typically measured in newtons, not pascals. However, if you are looking to calculate pressure (which relates force to area), then pressure is measured in pascals (Pa). Pressure (in pascals) is calculated by dividing force (in newtons) by the area over which the force is applied.
