Solution.—In addition to the pressure of .426 pound on the area of.04909 sq. in., there is now an additional pressure upon this area of5 + :J- = 5.25 lb., and the total pressure upon this area is .426 + 5.25 =5.676 lb. The pressure per square inch is X 5.676 = 115.6 lb. Ans. 984. Pressure upon… … According to the law of Pascal, the pressure which a fluid exerts upon a surface is at right angles to the surface; hence, in Fig. 1G7, the pressure acts in a direction indicated by the arrow-head on the line C D, and the lateral pressure on every square unit of area of the side F H will be in the…
