LIQUID PRESSURE PHYSICS KSSM

The diagram shows a cross-section of a pool. The density of water in the pool is 1000 kg m^-3.

What is the pressure exerted by the water at X?

• 2.5 x 10² Pa

• 2.5 x 10^-3 Pa

• 4.0 x 10³ Pa

• 4.0 x 10⁴ Pa

Diagram 6 shows a container filled with water.

Which is the correct comparison of the pressure at P and Q?

• Pressure at P > pressure at Q

• Pressure at P = pressure at Q

• Pressure at P < pressure at Q

Diagram 8 shows two divers in a lake and a diver in a sea. The pressure of water at T, S and U is P_T, P_S and P_U respectively.

• P_U > P_T > P_S

• P_U < P_T < P_S

• P_U = P_T > P_S

• P_U = P_T < P_S

Diagram 7 shows two identical containers containing liquid P and Q.

When the height of liquid P is 15 cm and the height of liquid Q is 20 cm, water spurts is the same.
