Answer:

c) depends only on the type of fluid

Explanation:

The pressure of a fluid at a specific depth is given by:

where

is the density of the fluid

g is the gravitational acceleration

h is the depth

We see that for a given depth h, the pressure of the fluid depends only on its density, so only on the type of fluid. Therefore, the correct choice is

a) depends only on the type of fluid

The other choices are wrong because:

b) the pressure is exerted in every direction

c) the pressure does not depend on the total volume of the fluid, but only on the depth h

Imagine that two balls, a basketball and a much larger exercise ball, are dropped from a parking garage. If both the mass and ra
pashok25 [27]

Here if we assume that there is no air friction on both balls then we can say

F = mg

now the acceleration is given as

F = ma = mg

a = g

so here both the balls will have same acceleration irrespective of size and mass

so we can say that to find out the time of fall of ball we can use

y = \frac{1}{2}gt^2

t = \sqrt{\frac{2y}{g}}

now from above equation we can say that time taken to hit the ground will be same for both balls and it is irrespective of its mass and size
