The Branch of science which deals with the study of fluids at rest.
Pascal’s Law
It states that the pressure or intensity of pressure at a point in a fluid at rest is equal in all directions.
Let consider a fluid at rest in a closed container then a change in pressure at one point will be transmitted without loss to every point of the fluid and to the walls of the container.
