The pressure in a liquid increases with depth

The pressure of water is highest at the lowest point of the cylinder as the water spurts out the furthest from this point

The pressure in a liquid does not depend on the shape or size of the containerThe diameters and shapes of the tubes are different. The pressure at the same depth is the same since the water levels in each tube is the same.

When the container is drilled with several identical holes at the same height, water will spurt out at equal speeds to reach equal distances from the circumference of the base.

The pressure in a liquids acts in all directionIf the thistle funnel, bent at different angles is placed at the same depth y, the manometer will indicate the same reading h. A liquid exerts a pressure on every surface in contact with it regardless which way the surface is facing.
