Question
Write an expression for the pressure at a point inside a liquid. Explain the meaning of the symbols used.
✓
Answer
$
P=P_0+h \rho g
$
Here, $P=$ Pressure exerted at a point in the liquid
$P_0=$ Atmospheric pressure
$h=$ Depth of the point below the free surface
$\rho=$ Density of the liquid
$g =$ Acceleration due to gravity
P=P_0+h \rho g
