Question

The pressure at any point inside a liquid is directly proportional to density of the liquid.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Pressure and density.

1. Pressure- The force applied perpendicular to an object's surface per unit area is known as pressure.
2. Density- A substance's density is defined as its mass per unit volume.

The hydrostatic pressure equation calculates the pressure exerted by a column of liquid.

$\mathrm{Pressure}=\mathrm{\rho gh}$

Where,

$\mathrm{\rho }$ is the density.

$\mathrm{h}$ is the height.

$\mathrm{g}$ is the acceleration due to gravity.

So according to this equation pressure is directly proportional to the density of the liquid.

Hence, the given statement is True.
