The pressure at the bottom of a jug filled with water does not depend on the

a) depth of the liquid
b) acceleration due to gravity
c) density of water
d) surface area of the water
e) none of the above

D) surface area of the water

Explanation:

The pressure at the bottom of a column of fluid is given by Stevino's law:

where

p is the pressure at the bottom of the column

is the density

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the depth of the liquid

So, we see that the pressure at the bottom of a jug filled with water depends on all these quantities:

A) depth of the liquid

B) acceleration due to gravity

C) density of water

While it does not depend on:

D) surface area of the water
