Correct answer is (b) Pascal’s principle

To explain I would say: Hydraulic system works on the basis of Pascal’s principle. This principle states that when pressure is applied to a closed system of fluid, the pressure is transmitted to every part of the fluid and also to the walls of the container in which fluid is enclosed.
