How do you calculate the pressure exerted by a liquid on the walls of the container?
p=hfg.
How will you show that liquids exert pressure on the wall of a container class 8?
On filling water, the rubber sheet tied to the mouth of glass tube gets stretched and bulges out. The bulging out of rubber sheet tied to the glass tube fixed in the wall of plastic bottle demonstrates that water present in plastic bottle exerts pressure on the walls of the bottle.
On what factors does the pressure exerted by liquid at the bottom of container depend?
Pressure exerted by a liquid : Liquids exert pressure on the walls of the container. Pressure exerted by the liquid at the bottom of the container depends on the height of its column.
Do liquids also exert pressure?
A solid surface can exert pressure, but fluids (i.e. liquids or gases) can also exert pressure. If you go deeper, there will be more water above you, so the weight and pressure from the water would increase too. Not only can the weight of liquids exert pressure, but the weight of gases can as well.
How do you calculate the pressure exerted by a liquid?
The pressure exerted by a liquid varies with the depth of the container. At shallower depth the liquid pressure is less than the pressure at the deepest portion of the container. Deep ocean divers do not want to dive at deeper portions of the ocean because of this. It can be written as Pressure = height * density * acceleration due to gravity.
What is the PSI of the water in the container?
PSI is a unit of pressure, not force. Your container is a tank that will be filled with water. The pressure at any point of the container wall is very simple, as it’s directly proportional to the water depth at that point. The pressure will be .434 PSI per foot of depth.
How does the pressure of a liquid depend on its depth?
The liquid exerts pressure on the base of the vessel. The pressure exerted by a liquid changes with depth in the liquid. The pressure exerted by a liquid increases with increasing depth inside the liquid.
Which instrument can be used to measure the pressure of gas?
A manometer can be used to measure the pressure of a gas. The (difference in) height between the liquid levels (h) is a measure of the pressure. Mercury is usually used because of its large density. Example 3
