Abstract

[13. Let ABCD (Fig. 2.1) be a fluid or any portion of fluid in which the particles are impelled by any forces, so that they are equilibrium; I say, if, from any point P placed inside that mass of fluid, are drawn the straight lines PA, PB to any two points A, B of the surface ABCD, the point P will be equally pressed along BP and along AB, or, what comes to be the same, the fluid contained in the channel or siphon APB will be in equilibrium. In fact, nobody ignores that when a fluid is in equilibrium, each particle P is pressed equally in all senses.]
