Question

Pressure at a point inside a liquid does not depends on:

• A. The depth of the point below the surface of the liquid.
• B. The nature of the liquid.
• C. The acceleration due to gravity at that point.
• D. The shape of the containing vessel.

Answer 1

The correct option is D The shape of the containing vessel.

pressure at a point inside a liquid = $\rho gh$ where h is the depth of the point below the surface of the liquid .

nature of the liquid depends on its density

but pressure does not depend on the shape of the vessel containing it

so option (D) is correct .
