Question

Explain the pressure exerted by liquids and gases in detail. .

Answer 1

pressure exerted by liquids-
A manometer is a device used to measure the pressure exerted by a liquid

characteristics of liquid pressure-
1. pressure exerted by a liquid increases wi6th depth.
2. liquids exert pressure on walls of the container.
3. liquids exert pressure on all direction at all points.

pressure exerted by gases-
the force exerted by atmosphere per unit area of the surface of the earth is called atmospheric pressure

1. atmospheric pressure decrease with an increased in the altitude

instrument used to measure atmospheric pressure is called barometer.

hope it helps you!

Answer 2

Answer:

Hydrostatic pressure refers to the pressure exerted by a fluid (gas or liquid) at any point in space within that fluid, assuming that the fluid is incompressible and at rest. Pressure within a liquid depends only on the density of the liquid, the acceleration due to gravity, and the depth within the liquid.
