Question 1 Report

I. Density of the liquid.

II. Acceleration due to gravity.

III. Type of container of the liquid.

IV. The constituents of the liquid.

Which of the above conditions will NOT affect the pressure of fluid?

I and III only

II and III only

III and IV only

I and II only

Answer Details

The pressure of a fluid depends on the depth, density, and the acceleration due to gravity. Therefore, options I and II, which are the density of the liquid and acceleration due to gravity, respectively, affect the pressure of the fluid. On the other hand, option III, which is the type of container of the liquid, does not affect the pressure of the fluid. Finally, option IV, which is the constituents of the liquid, may affect the pressure of the fluid depending on the density of the constituents. Therefore, the answer is III and IV only.
