Question:

pascals law states that pressure is confined in a closed system explain it?

when in a hydraulic press if the level of fluid in plunger and ram are different how to consider the pascals law of confined pressure in a closed system I.e the pressure at the free surface of fluid in plunger would not be equal to the pressure we get in the free surface over ram is it that we have to consider the lower level of fluid whether in plunger or ram as pressure is same at same level.

Answer:

Try your local hardware store or someplace like Home DepotYou can find all kinds of pipe in the plumbing sectionGood luck.
Yes the pressures are the same, the machine works because the resultant forces are different because the area is differentForce Pressure x Area If the area is increased then the resultant force is increased linearly, that is the function of an elevating equipment, as to lift cars, elevators cranes etc.
