essures in themass of a liquid, which vary at different points. These pressures are sub-mitted to the following general laws :— I. The pressure i?i each layer is proportional to the depth. II. With (iifferefit liquids and the same depth ^ the pressure is proportionalto the density of the liquid.… … Meyer has found, by direct experiments, that pressure is transmittedthrough hquids contained in tubes, with the same velocity as that withwhich sound travels in the same circumstances. 99. Vertical upward pressure.—The pressure which the upper layers ofa liquid exert on the lower layers causes them…
