Question

Match Column-I with Column-II and select the correct answer using the codes given below the columns.
Column I Column II
1. Thrust (p) Force/Area
2. Pressure (q) Always exerted in all
directions
3. Liquid pressure (r) Force
(s) Increases with depth

• A. 1→(p);2→(r);3→(q) and (s)
• B. 1→(r);2→(p);3→(q) and (s)
• C. 1→(r);2→(p) and (q);3→(s)
• D. 1→(q);2→(r) and (s);3→(p)

Answer 1

The correct option is B 1→(r);2→(p);3→(q) and (s)

The force that acts on an object perpendicular to its surface is called thrust. So basically thrust is a kind of a force.
The force acting on a per unit area of a surface is called pressure.
The pressure exerted by a liquid increases as we go deeper in the liquid. As the depth of liquid increases the weight of the liquid column pushing down from above increases and hence the pressure also increases.
Also, liquids exert pressure in all the directions even on the walls of the container in which they are placed.
