NEET Physics Pascal's Law Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): Pascal's Law states that pressure applied to an enclosed fluid is transmitted undiminished to every part of the fluid.
Reason (R): The viscosity of a fluid affects the transmission of pressure as described by Pascal's Law.
Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.
A is true but R is false.
A is false.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Pascal's Law relates to the uniform transmission of pressure in a fluid, which is independent of viscosity. The NCERT context does not link viscosity with pressure transmission as per Pascal's Law.
