JEE Main, NEET: How To Study Pascal’s Law

Edited By Safeer PP | Updated on Nov 05, 2024 03:07 PM IST | #NEET

What is Pascal's Law?The French mathematician, scientist, inventor, and theologian Blaise Pascal in 1653 published his work on fluids ‘The physical treatises of Pascal: the equilibrium of liquids’, in which he discussed principles of static fluids. A fluid at rest is a static fluid and such a state of the fluid is said to be static equilibrium. If the fluid under consideration is water then we say it is in hydrostatic equilibrium. In static equilibrium, the net force on any part of the fluid must be zero at all times otherwise the fluid will start to flow. Fluid taken here for the study is incompressible i.e., its density will remain constant.

JEE Main, NEET: How To Study Pascal’s Law

Statement: Let us see how the National Council for Educational Research and Training (NCERT) treats Pascal’s law, also known as Pascal's principle. This principle states that when a change in pressure is applied to an enclosed fluid, it is transmitted equally and undiminished to all portions of the fluid and to the walls of its container.

In the above illustration, you can see that pressure is applied on the sponge ball by pressing it with the thumb and according to Pascal’s law we know that the pressure applied is transmitted equally in all directions. Hence, fluid is released with the same pressure through the pores of the sponge ball.

Before discussing the application of Pascal’s law, let us look at the mathematical expression of Pascal’s law. Suppose you apply force F1 on one of the movable pistons (left side) thereby exerting pressure p1 on the cylindrical container of cross-sectional area A1. Because of the change in pressure due to force F1, it transmits equally and undiminished to all portions of fluids.

Pressure applied on one of the left cylinders is equal to the pressure exerted on the right cylinder

\therefore \frac{F_{1}}{A_{1}}=\frac{F_{2}}{A_{2}}

The hydraulic system is based on Pascal's principle of transmission of fluid pressure equally and undiminished in all directions. Let us discuss the application of Pascal’s law

Hydraulic Lift

In a hydraulic lift, fitted with airtight cylinders, there are two cylinders; a narrow cylinder A is connected with a wider cylinder B by an ideal fluid (incompressible). The lowering of the piston fitted to cylinder A because of application of pressure is transmitted equal and undiminished to the piston fitted to cylinder B by virtue of Pascal’s law. As a result the platform cum piston connected with the wider cylinder is lifted up.

Advantages of Hydraulic Lifts:

  • It is cheaper to install than other elevator types.

  • It is more portable than other elevating means.

Disadvantages of Hydraulic Lifts:

  • It has a relatively slow lifting speed.

  • Fluid (oil in the given case) in the piston system can overheat quickly due to compression, so an efficient cooling mechanism is needed.

  • Slight jerk may be felt compared to the other lift systems.

The lifting mechanism of a hydraulic lift that we have shown here is utilizing mechanical power (because of the pressing of the piston by a person as shown in the figure) but for practical purposes we use an electrically powered pump in which fluid is pushed into a jack lifting system to lift the platform up.

Pistons within a cylinder at the base of the lift provide the power to the elevator to move the object placed over it up and down.

Hydraulic Brakes

Application of Pascal's law: Hydraulic brake systemApplication of Pascal's law: Hydraulic brake system

The braking systems of cars, trucks, etc. are based on Pascal's law. The hydraulic brakes allow equal pressure to be transmitted throughout the liquid. It consists of a master cylinder, four-wheel cylinders (slave cylinder), and pipeline carrying braking fluid from the master cylinder to a slave cylinder.

Brakes Applied: When the brake pedal is pressed, the force exerted applies pressure on the piston connected with the master cylinder and the pressure applied is transmitted equally and undiminished with the help of braking fluid via metal pipeline. The increase in pressure applied after pressing the pedal transmits to all the pistons of the other cylinders which leads to outward stretching of spring connected with the shoe which in turn presses drum brake. The force of friction between the brake shoe and the drum brake stops the wheels. The spring is extended because of the pressing of the brake shoe with the drum brake and both the arms of the brake shoe are in sync because of the same pressure transmitted by the liquid as per Pascal’s law.

Brakes Released: As soon as the foot is taken off the brake pedal the spring gets relaxed because of the restoring spring force and the liquid is pushed back due to the returning of the piston towards its initial position.

Advantages of Hydraulic Braking System :

  • Equal braking action on all wheels (equal pressure transmission because of Pascal’s law).

  • It is easy to build.

  • The low wear rate of brake linings(a layer of hard material attached to a brake shoe or brake pad to increase friction against the drum or disc).

Disadvantages of Hydraulic Braking System :

  • The braking system may fail due to leakage of fluid from brake linings.

  • The presence of air inside the pipeline affects the whole system

  • Comparatively, it requires frequent maintenance more than the other braking systems.

There are many devices around us that work on the principle of Pascal’s law. It may appear like a simple law but its greatness lies in its application.

Hello,

Being an NEET 2024 scorer of 204 as an unreserved female candidate and having domicile in Uttar Pradesh, it shall be tough to get seat in any private medical colleges in Bihar during the course of stray vacancy round because the cutoff scores for any unreserved category student shall be higher even during stray vacancies in private medical colleges. However, cutoffs vary year after year depending on the number of applications received, seats available, and the competition for admission.


To get a relatively good idea of your admission probabilities, I would suggest the Careers 360 NEET College Predictor tool. It can thus aid you in understanding the scopes and possibilities of getting you an admission in different Medical colleges based on your NEET Score, Category, or other domicile details. Kindly visit the website, Career 360, by simply putting your NEET scores and other relevant criteria which will provide you specific predictability.




Hello,

With this tool, you can easily check the options available to you for NEET PG colleges, including management quota seats. You can estimate how many colleges you can get into based on your rank using the Careers360 NEET PG College Predictor. Here's the link:

Careers360 NEET PG College Predictor

You can then put in your NEET PG rank and other details to get a better idea of how likely you are going to get a seat in some colleges and programs, like Radiation Oncology.

Hello,

The situation might make some problem arise while giving the marksheets before the admission committee, if you keep different names of your mother on your 10th and 12th mark sheets. Sometimes, all such documentation consistencies go very important to the concern, and they might find this as trouble for you. But does not say that your form will certainly be rejected, after all. Hence, to escape all of these complications,

Affidavit or Notarized Declaration: There could be an affidavit or a notarized declaration that these two names refer to the same person. This would enable a legal confirmation of identity.

Additional Supporting Documents: Collect all supporting documents like a passport and Aadhar card, which bear your mother's name as at least one of these two variations.

Contact the NEET Authorities: If possible, contact the authorities of NEET examinations or even check out the official guidelines so that discrepancies, if any, can be sorted out well in advance.

This helps avoid problems in the process of verification.

There is very least possibilities that Your mother's or father's Aadhar Card will be required at any step , so logically there should be no problem but sometimes they ask why there is discrepancy in names at yhe time of document verification if you have a reason then they take affidavit from you and you get admission.


Mostly 10th Marksheet is required as a date of birth proof these are very minor mistakes they will understand

At the end Your name should be correct and date of birth


Good luck..

Hi

For the NEET , the examination covers only three subjects:

Physics, Chemistry, and Biology (PCB) . NEET does not include Mathematics (M) as part of its syllabus , so the exam is designed  for students with a background in Biology along with Physics and Chemistry in 12th grade .

If you are preparing for NEET , you need to focus on PCB , as Mathematics is not  for this exam . NEET is primarily aimed at medical and dental program admissions , so the focus is on Biology instead of a broader range of subjects like PCMB .

For more information about NEET exam , you can drop message .

All the best
