Sundial und hydraulic press: was sie gemeinsam haben
- Schritt 1. Sundial — nutzt — Euclidean geometry. The scale is marked by the angle of the shadow.
- Schritt 2. Euclidean geometry — wird verwendet in — Weather station. Instruments are set up on a site according to a standard.
- Schritt 3. Weather station — hat als Teil — Barometer. A barometer.
- Schritt 4. Barometer — funktioniert wie — Manometer. Both measure pressure with a column of liquid: a barometer measures the air around us, a manometer the pressure inside a vessel.
- Schritt 5. Manometer — nutzt — Hydraulics (Pascal’s law). A liquid manometer is a pair of communicating vessels: the difference in levels shows the pressure.
- Schritt 6. Hydraulics (Pascal’s law) — wird verwendet in — Hydraulic press. Pascal’s law multiplies the force.
