I. Density of the liquid.
II. Acceleration due to gravity.
III. Type of container of the liquid.
IV. The constituents of the liquid.
A. I and III only
B. II and III only
C. III and IV only
D. I and II only
Correct Answer:
Option C – III and IV only
Explanation
pressure in fluid is given by P = hpg.
∴ fluid pressure depends on the height of the liquid column, h, density of liquid p, and acceleration of free fall g. it is therefore independent of type of container and constituents of the liquid
![A reservoir 500m deep is filled with a fluid of density 850 kgm‾³. If the atmospheric pressure is 1.05 x 105 Nm‾²; the pressure at the bottom of the reservoir is. [g = 10ms‾²] past-questions-and-answers](https://erudites.ng/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/past-questions-and-answers-150x150.jpg)
