JAMB - Physics (1983 - No. 7)
Which of the following statements is true about liquid pressure is NOT correct? The pressure
at a point in a liquid is proportional to the depth
at any point in a liquid is the same at the same level
is exerted equally in all directions at any point
of a liquid at any point on the wall of its container acts in a direction perpendicular to the wall
at a particular depth depends on the shape of the vessel
توضیح
The pressure in a liquid does not depend on the shape or size of the container. The pressure in a liquid acts in all directions. The pressure exerted increases with the depth of liquid. Pressure at all points at equal depth is equal.
