How does the area of the bottom of a container of fact the downward pressure of a liquid?
The area of the bottom of a container affects the downward pressure of a liquid by distributing the weight of the liquid over that area. Pressure is defined as force per unit area; thus, for a given weight of liquid, a larger bottom area results in lower pressure, while a smaller area leads to higher pressure. This relationship is crucial in fluid mechanics and influences how fluids behave in different containers. Ultimately, the total downward pressure exerted by the liquid is equal to the weight of the liquid divided by the area of the container's base.

What effect does the size of the container have on the pressure of the liquid at its bottom?
The horizontal dimensions of the container ... like length and width ... don't make any difference. But the pressure at the bottom is directly proportional to the depth of the liquid, which is ultimately limited by the height of the container.
How can a liquid take the same shape as the bottom of its container?
Because in a liquid, the molecules are free to slide past each other; thus, the liquid doesn't have a fixed shape. When there is gravity, the individual parts of the liquid will tend to go down - until it meets something that holds it back, like the container.Read more: Why_does_a_liquid_takes_the_shape_of_a_container
How does pressure due to a liquid held in a container vary with depth amount and shape and size of the container?
Pressure due to a liquid increases with depth because of the weight of the liquid above it. The pressure in a liquid is the same at a given depth regardless of the shape or size of the container, as long as the depth is the same. The shape and size of the container would only affect the pressure at different depths in the liquid.
What is the velocity of the container from which liquid is coming out from hole at its bottom?
This question does not provide enough information on the relevant parameters to even attempt an answer. One would assume that if the hole is at the bottom of the container (and not on the side at the bottom) and the liquid is coming out of the hole only due to gravity that the the container would remain stationary. If there is internal pressure in the container, then the initial pressure becomes important as does the time since the water began to flow. If the hole is on the side of the container, then friction between the container and the surface it is resting on become significant. If the container is not circular in cross section, then the location of the hole along the side helps determine whether the container moves laterally or spins.
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 :)

Why liquid pressure greatest in bottom?
Because above the bottom most layer there is maximum height of the liquid stands on. Also the expression for the pressure is hdg. h- height of the liquid. d-density of the liquid. g-acceleration due to gravity. Hence maximum h leads to max pressure.
What is ferrostatic pressure?
The pressure exerted by the pressure head of liquid steel in a container at bottom surface of the container is known as ferro static pressure.
Why can liquid take the shape of the bottom of its container?
as there are less inter molecular space between them they do not have a definite shape and so the liquids do not have any shape so if we pore it to any container it takes the shape of the container.

Why liquid storage tanks are made thick near the bottom?
Because weight exerts pressure as it 'accumulates'. There is little weight at the top of the container, but as gravity attracts the liquid towards the bottom of the container, so the pressure is greatest there. Put some water into a balloon and see where the pressure of the water pushes on the skin of the balloon.
Why does a liquid flow at longer distance when a hole is made at the centre of the container?
because liquid exerts more pressure more at the bottom tan at the top
