Why atmospheric pressure varies with height in a different way from the way liquid pressure varies with depth.?
For the same reason. The liquid above the location considered, or the atmosphere above the position considered, helps contribute to the pressure; if there is more liquid or atmosphere above, there is more pressure.
What is the relationship between liquid pressure and depth of a liquid?
As the depth of the fluid increases, the pressure increases. To explain this mathematicaly you consider the Sg of the fluid times the height of the column multiplied by gravity will give you the pressure at the base of the column
What is the difference between liquid pressure and depth?
Liquid pressure depends on depth. It can be calculated from liquid density times depth.
What is the relationship between liquid pressure and the depth of a liquid between liquid pressure and density?
pressure of liquid on bottom=density*gravitational force*depth :)
Relationship between liquid pressure and depth?
The greater the depth, the greater the pressure.
How does the pressure exerted by a liquid vary with direction and depth?
The pressure exerted by a liquid increases with depth. This is known as hydrostatic pressure and is directly proportional to the density of the liquid. The pressure variation with direction is isotropic, meaning it is the same regardless of the direction taken in the liquid.
Upon what factors does liquid pressure depend?
Atmospheric pressure Density of the liquid Gravitional field strength in the area the liquid is in The distance from the surface of the liquid i.e. depth Pressure in a liquid=Atmospheric pressure +(Depth X Gravity strength X Density) There might be more I don't know about
What are the Laws of liquid pressure?
1) Pressure increases with depth 2) Pressure is the same on the same horizontal plane of the liquid 3) Pressure varies with different liquids on the same horizontal plane 4) Pressure is the same in all directions about a point 5) A liquid seeks its own level
Does pressure varies with depth?
yer bro
What is Dependence of pressure on the depth?
At greater depth, the pressure increases, due to the weight of the liquid above.
What is the relationship between liquid depth and pressure?
the pressure of liquid is HDG where H=depth D=density g= acceleration due to gravity thus depth= pressure/density*acceleration due to gravity
Relationship between liquid pressure and density?
If you were submerged in a liquid more dense than water, the pressure would be correspondingly greater. The pressure due to a liquid is precisely equal to the product of weight density and depth. liquid pressure = weight density x depth. also the pressure a liquid exerts against the sides and bottom of a container depends on the density and the depth of the liquid.
