kept at the same depth, no change inthe difference in level of the waterin the U-shaped tube is observed.Evidently the magnitude of the forceat any point within tlie fluid mass isindependent of the direction of pres-sure. The uinvard, doiumvard, andlateral pressures are the same at thesame depth.… … Fig. 59.—Investigation of pres-sure within the mass of a liquidby pressure gauge. are not vertical, the mag-nitude of the force is notso apparent. The appa-ratus shown in Fig. 60may be used to investigatethe question. A, B, C, andD are tubes of differentshapes but made to fit intoa common base. ^…
