Q79 / 90 · JEE Main 2023 (10 Apr Shift 1) · Physics
Given below are two statements:
Statement I: Pressure in a reservoir of water is same at all points at the same level of water.
Statement II: The pressure applied to enclosed water is transmitted in all directions equally.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Given below are two statements:

Statement II: The pressure applied to enclosed water is transmitted in all directions equally.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
- ABoth Statement and Statement are false
- BStatement is true but Statement is false
- CStatement is false but Statement is true
- Correct answerDBoth Statement and Statement are true
Solution
Pressure in a static fluid will be same at each point on same horizontal level.
where is atmospheric pressure.
Pascal's law states that pressure applied to enclosed water is transmitted equally in all directions. Hence, both the statements are true and this is the right option.
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
