Question

According to Pascal’s law, pressure in a fluid at rest is the same at all points, if

• A. they are at the same plane
• B. they are at the same height
• C. they are along same line
• D. Both (a) and (b)

Hint:

Pascal's law depends on vertical depth in fluid, not lateral distance or shape of container.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

According to Pascal’s law, pressure at all points at the same height in a fluid at rest is the same, regardless of the shape of the container. Thus, only the height (vertical depth) matters, not being in the same plane.
