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

A

If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

C

If assertion is true and reason is false.

D

If both assertion and reason are false.

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 direction. Thus it works on the principle of Pascals laws.
