I've had a doubt about the following (somewhat contradictory) statements.
1) pressure applied to an incompressible fluid is equally transmitted at all points.
2) pressure at points at different heights in a fluid placed in a container in a gravitational field are different.
Gravity applies a pressure on the fluid. If the fluid transmits the pressure equally at all points, then how is pascal's law valid?
