Question

As we go deeper beneath the surface of liquid, the pressure:
A. Remains same
B. Increases
C. Decreases
D. Depends on weather

Answer 1

This question talks about the degree and level of pressure when an object is immersed in a water body. This gives us an insight into what happens to us when we swim in pools and other water bodies suitable.

Complete step by step answer:
We are given to find what happens to the pressure as we go deeper beneath the liquid surface.
When we are above the water surface or on the surface of the water, we are exposed to the atmosphere (Air surrounding us at that point).
We then operate with the pressure from the atmosphere which is the atmospheric pressure
We have that the formula P = h×D×g, which critically explains that there is a direct relationship among pressure, height, density and acceleration due to gravity, where P stands for pressure, h stands for height or altitude, D stands for density and g stands for acceleration due to gravity.
The relation thus shows that pressure increases with height or depth, that as we move from above the surface downwards into the liquid the surrounding pressure of the liquid then becomes what we will then be operating with. Therefore, the pressure increases as we go deeper beneath a liquid surface.

So, the correct answer is “Option B”.

Note:
A possible phenomenon that explains and is similar to the question is when we dip a bottle inside water, it will be observed that an air bubble will pop up from the bottle because the pressure of the water is much and can be seen from the reaction compared to when the bottle is left alone on a desk.
