According to Pascal's law, pressure in a fluid at rest is the same at all points, if
- A they are at the same plane
- B they are at the same height
- C they are along same line
- D Both (a) and (b)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) they are at the same height
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Pascal's law states that for a fluid at rest, the pressure at all points at the same horizontal level is identical. In a continuous fluid at rest, the pressure variation with depth is given by \(P = P_0 + \rho gh\), where \(h\) is the depth measured from the surface. Points at…
