Pressure is only exerted at the bottom of the container.
b)
Pressure is only transmitted to the surface of the fluid.
c)
Pressure changes at one point are transmitted equally in all directions.
d)
Pressure increases with the temperature of the fluid.
2.
What is the main principle behind hydraulic systems as described by Pascal's law?
a)
Pressure is only relevant in open systems.
b)
Pressure is only applied at the surface of the fluid.
c)
Pressure applied to a confined fluid is transmitted equally in all directions.
d)
Pressure decreases with the depth of the fluid.
3.
What is the effect of increasing the depth of a fluid in a container on the pressure at the bottom?
a)
Pressure increases with depth.
b)
Pressure remains constant regardless of depth.
c)
Pressure is only affected by the fluid's viscosity.
d)
Pressure decreases with depth.
4.
What happens when pressure is applied to a confined fluid?
a)

b)
The fluid evaporates.
c)
The pressure is only felt at the point of application.
