Assertion: Pascal law is the working principle of hydraulic lift.
Reason: Pressure `=(thrust)/(area)`

A

Statement I is true, statement II is true and Statement II is a correct explanation for Statement I.

B

Statement I is true, Statement II is true and Statement II is NOT the correct explanation for Statement I.

C

Statement I is true, Statement II is false.

D

Statement I is false, Statement II is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
A hydraulic lift is an arrangement used to multiply the force. When a force is applied hydraulic pressure is transmitted in all directions. This is the working principle of Pascal's law.
