Question

At what position the fluid experiences more pressure

• A. At the bottom of container
• B. At top of container
• C. In the middle of container
• D. Outside the container

Answer 1

The correct option is A At the bottom of container

The pressure at a point in the fluid is due to the weight of the fluid above that point, acting on unit area.

Since the weight above the bottommost point is the highest, the pressure is maximum at that point.
