Liquid in a state of equilibrium applies pressure on the objects it touches, including its container. There exist two types of force, hydrostatic energies and external forces. When applied against a level surface, the liquid exerts equal force against all points of that surface. An object that’s extensively submerged in a fluid tha

The Earliest Public Water Features
The water from springs and other sources was initially supplied to the residents of nearby towns and municipalities via water fountains, whose purpose was largely practical, not aesthetic. A source of water higher in elevation than the fountain was required to pressurize the flow and send water spraying from the fountain's spout, a technology witho
