Blood hydrostatic tends to force fluid out of the capillaries?

Pressure is created by moving particles (fluid) bumping up against surfaces. In the case of blood hydrostatic pressure, blood is about 55% plasma and that plasma doesn't just flow down the length of the blood vessel but also pushes up against the sides of it creating blood hydrostatic pressure. Now there are different kinds of capillaries but in general they are all quite leaky. When you have fluid pressure pushing up against a leaky wall, some of that fluid is going to get out.

Can I paint my cement walls in basement being located around my oil furnace if the paint can says don't paint around hydrostatic pressure?

Hydrostatic pressure is water seeping through the walls from outside. Paint does not hold up to it unless it is specifically designed to waterproof against that type of moisture. Definitely check the paint for warnings about being flammable, as well as any cleaners or prep materials you may use. If they are flammable, the furnace must be turned off including any pilot light until the product is fully dried. Latex paint is not usually flammable.

What effects does stellar equilibrium have on stars?

The properties of a main-sequence star can be understood by considering the various physical processes occurring in the interior. First is the hydrostatic balance, also called hydrostatic equilibrium. This determines the density structure of the star as the internal pressure gradient balances against the force of gravity.

Can ground water that pushes up through floor cracks be prevented by putting holes in your sump pump basin to drain into there before pushing against the floor and flooding the basement?

It would be well worth your time to try it. Drill a series of 1/2"-3/4" holes directly under the depth line of the concrete floor, at a point where it should hit any fill gravel. Hopefully some of the hydrostatic pressure will be released.


Why the base of the dam is made wider?

The pressure of the water against the top of the dam wall, is much less than the pressure exerted against the bottom of the dam wall. The width of a dam wall increases to compensate for the increased water pressures at the lower level.
