How does Pascal's principle relate to hydraulic lifts? Hydraulic lifts use Pascal's principle to amplify force. Pascal's principle tells us that pressure is transmitted equally throughout a static fluid. A small force exerted on a small area over a large distance is translated into a large force exerted on a large area over a small distance in a device like a car lift.
The pascal (symbol: Pa) is the SI derived unit of pressure, internal pressure, stress, Young's modulus and tensile strength, named after the French mathematician, physicist, inventor, writer, and philosopher Blaise Pascal. It is a measure of force per unit area, defined as one newton per square meter.
