What is the principle of Pascal’s law?
A. A principle that states that the pressure applied to a confined fluid is transmitted uniformly in all directions.
B. A principle that states that the pressure and volume of a gas are inversely proportional at constant temperature.
C. A principle that states that the total pressure of a gas mixture is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of its individual components.
D. A principle that states that the buoyant force on an object submerged in a fluid is equal to the weight of the displaced fluid.

Explanation: Pascal’s law is a principle in fluid mechanics that states that the pressure applied to a confined fluid is transmitted uniformly in all directions. This means that if pressure is applied to one part of a fluid in a closed container, the pressure will be transmitted to all other parts of the fluid equally.
