    Increase in pressure at one point of the enclosed liquid in equilibrium at rest is transmitted equally to all other points. This is as per

    Fluids at rest exert a normal force to the walls of the container or to the sruface of the body immersed in the fluid. The pressure exerted by this force at a point inside the liqid is the sum of atmospheric pressure and a factor which depends on the density of the liquid, the acceleration due to gravity and the height of the liquid, above that point. The upthrust acting on a body immersed in a stationary liquid is the net force acting on the body in the upward direction. A number of phenomenon of liquids in motion can be explain by Bernoulli's theorem which relates the pressure, flow speed and height for flow of an ideal incompressible fluid. A container of large uniform corss sectional area. A resting on a horizontal surface holds two immiscible, non viscous and incompressile liquids of densities d and 2d , each of height H//2 as shown in the figure. The lower density liquid is open to the atmosphere having pressure P_(0) . Situation I: A homogeneous solid cylinder of length L(LltH//2) . cross sectional area A//5 is immersed such that it floats with its axis vertical at liquid -liquid interface with lenght L//4 in the denser liquid. The total pressure at the bottom of the container is

    Pressure exerted by a liquid at a given point is:
