Air is compressible and liquid is incompressible.

• True

• False

What does Pascal's law state?

• When you apply a small amount of pressure to a compressed fluid, it will send that pressure nowhere.

• When you apply pressure to a confined fluid, the fluid will send that pressure out in all directions at the same rate.

• When you apply a large amount of pressure to an object, it will float.

• When you use a fluid to apply pressure, the pressure will release.

It's important for a hydraulic system to contain what?
