Question 1

What happens to the pressure in a fluid at rest as you go deeper?

  • It decreases
  • It remains the same
  • It increases

💡 Hint: Think about the weight of water above you in a swimming pool.

Question 2

True or False: Pascal’s Law states that pressure changes in a confined fluid are transmitted equally in all directions.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Recall the principle of how hydraulic brakes work.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A water reservoir has a pressure of 200 kPa at the bottom due to the height of water. Calculate the height of the water column. (Use ρ = 1000 kg/m³ and g = 9.81 m/s²)

💡 Hint: Start by rearranging the hydrostatic pressure equation.

Question 2

In a hydraulic press, if a small piston diameter is 10 cm and a larger piston diameter is 40 cm. If a force of 50 N is applied on the small piston, what is the force exerted on the larger piston?

💡 Hint: Remember the area ratio function of Pascal’s law.
