Which law states that the effect of pressure is the same for all portions of a confined fluid?

$A$ hydraulic lift as shown in the figure is used to lift a mass of $1000 \ kg$, which is placed on a piston $(P_1)$ of area $1 \ m^2$. If the cross-section area of the piston $(P_2)$ at the other end is $0.01 \ m^2$, then how much mass needs to be put on it to lift the $1000 \ kg$ (in $kg$)?

$A$ hydraulic lift is shown in the figure. The radii of the movable pistons $P_1$ and $P_2$ are $2 \,m$ and $8 \,m$ respectively. If a body of mass $2 \,kg$ is placed on piston $P_1$, then the force on piston $P_2$ is (Ignore atmospheric pressure, acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \,ms^{-2}$) (in $\,N$)

In a hydraulic lift,if the radius of the smaller piston is $5 \ cm$,and the radius of the larger piston is $50 \ cm$,then the weight that the larger piston can support when a force of $250 \ N$ is applied to the smaller piston is (in $kN$)
