Explanation:
The pressure exerted in the fluid at that depth is given by :
[tex]P=\rho \times g\times h[/tex]..............(1)
Where
[tex]\rho[/tex] is the density of the fluid
g is the acceleration due to gravity
h is the depth of the fluid
It is clear from equation (1) that the pressure exerted in the fluid is directly proportional to the depth in a fluid. As the depth increases, the pressure will also increase.
