الصفحة 7 - BPC) ; or, the pressure of a fluid on any surface is equal to the weight of a column of the fluid whose base is equal to the area of the surface, and altitude equal to the depth of the centre of gravity of the surface below the surface of the fluid.
الصفحة 9 - ... surface below the surface of the fluid. A cylindrical vessel is filled with equal masses of two incompressible fluids which do not mix ; supposing the -whole pressures on the upper and lower portions of the concave surface of the vessel to be equal, compare their densities. 4. Prove that the resultant pressure of a fluid on the surface of a solid immersed in it is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced, and acts upwards in the vertical line through the centre of gravity of the fluid displaced....
