Show that liquid pressure is directly
proportional to height of liquid in a vessel.​

Sagot :

Answer:

P=F/A where F is the weight of the water and A is the area on which it is resting. The weight of the water is mg. The mass of the water is dv where d is the density and v is the volume. Finally, the volume of the water in a vessel is equal to the area of the base of the vessel times the height of the vessel. (v=Ah)

Plugging everything in we get:

P = dAhg/A

So

P=dhg

So we have shown that liquid pressure is directly  proportional to height of liquid in a vessel.​
