Q1
In a fluid at rest, the pressure at a point depends on:
  1. The height of the fluid column above it
  2. The shape of the container
  3. The volume of the fluid
  4. The temperature of the fluid

Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In a fluid at rest, the pressure at a point depends on:
  • Step 1: Understand that a fluid at rest means it is not moving.
  • Step 2: Recognize that pressure is the force exerted by the fluid on a point.
  • Step 3: Know that the pressure at a certain point in the fluid is influenced by the weight of the fluid above it.
  • Step 4: Realize that the height of the fluid column above the point affects this weight.
  • Step 5: Conclude that higher fluid means more weight, which increases pressure at that point.
