How does a pressure of a liquid depends on its depth? Explain with a diagram
All the liquids exert pressure on the base or bottom and walls of their container. All the liquid has weight. When we pour the liquid into a vessel, then the weight of liquid pushes down on the base of the vessel producing pressure.
The liquid exerts pressure on the base of the vessel.
The pressure exerted by a liquid changes with depth in the liquid. The pressure exerted by liquid increases with increasing depth inside the liquid. The pressure exerted by a liquid is small just under the surface of the liquid. But as we go we deeper in a liquid the pressure of liquid increases. As the depth of liquid increases the weight of liquid column pushing down from above increases and hence the pressure also increases.
