Expression of pressure at a point indide a liquid
Answers
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.
HEY MATE HERE IS THE ANSWER
Consider a vessel containing liquid.
Depth of vessel = h
Cross sectional area = A
Density of the liquid = ρ
Weight of the liquid column exerts a downward thrust on the bottom of the vessel and the liquid exerts pressure
Weight of the liquid column,
Pressure exerted by the liquid column on the bottom of the vessel, that is the pressure exerted at the depth .
The pressure exerted by the liquid column at a depth h is proportional to the density of the liquid and the depth.
