write an experiment to show that liquids exert equal pressure at the same depth?
Answers
Take a plastic bottle in a tub , fill it with water,make 4 holes around the bottle at equal heights, we can see that water flows out with equal pressure from all holes. thus we observe that liquids exert equal pressure at same depth.
Hope this will help you :)

★ As you know, pressure is the force per unit area. Liquid pressure at a depth is the weight of the liquid above that point. This weight will be equal all over the same depth regions.
★Liquid exerts equal pressure at the same depth.
Example;
➪ Take two test tubes and fill them both with the liquid (up to same height) which is not dissolvable in water and now immerse the tubes upside down in the bucket full of water. The height of the liquid will be same in the test tube when the test tubes are immersed at the same depth.
→ attached diagram ☝︎ shows equal pressure exerted by the liquid at the given depth in all directions.
★As the pressure is same in all directions, the velocity of efflux through the holes and the range of liquid on the ground is equal in all directions.
