The size of the container does not have a direct impact on the pressure of the liquid at its bottom. Pressure at the bottom of a liquid is determined by the height of the liquid column above that point and the density of the liquid. These factors are independent of the container's size.
Liquid pressure can be calculated using the formula P = ρgh, where P is the pressure, ρ is the density of the liquid, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height of the liquid column. This formula is derived from the hydrostatic pressure equation.
The height of the Mercury column would decrease.
Liquid pressure can be calculated using the formula P = ρgh, where P is the pressure, ρ is the density of the liquid, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height of the liquid column above the point where the pressure is being measured. This formula is based on the concept that pressure increases with depth in a liquid due to the weight of the liquid above pushing down.
Pressure= Force/Area Pressure of a Liquid is density times gravity times height
The height of the liquid column in a barometer changes as atmospheric pressure changes because atmospheric pressure exerts force on the liquid in the barometer tube. As atmospheric pressure increases, it pushes the liquid column higher to maintain balance. Conversely, as atmospheric pressure decreases, the liquid column falls due to reduced pressure pushing up from below.
As the atmospheric pressure changes, the force pushing on the surface of the liquid changes. Therefore,the height of the liquid in the tube increases as the atmospheric pressure increases.
As the depth of the fluid increases, the pressure increases. To explain this mathematicaly you consider the Sg of the fluid times the height of the column multiplied by gravity will give you the pressure at the base of the column
It would be the same as the pressure in the liquid outside the tube at the open end- the deeper it is in the liquid, the higher the pressure.
The pressure of a liquid column of height h ("h meter liquid column) is: P = ρ*g*h [Bar], where ρ is the density of the liquid g is the gravitational acceleration (on Earth, in average 9.80665 m/s2)
Liquid force, also known as hydrostatic pressure, can be calculated using the formula: Pressure = density of liquid x gravitational acceleration x height of liquid column. It represents the force exerted by a liquid at a certain depth due to its weight.

Pressure is measured in mercury because mercury is a dense liquid that is sensitive to changes in pressure. When pressure is applied, the height of the mercury in a column changes, allowing for accurate measurement of pressure levels.
The dry column pressure drop refers to the pressure drop across the column when no liquid is present, while the wet column pressure drop refers to the pressure drop when the column is flooded with liquid. The wet column pressure drop is typically higher than the dry column pressure drop at fixed flow conditions because the presence of the liquid adds additional resistance to flow, increasing pressure drop.
the trajectory of water is used as indicator of pressure. The longer the trajectory, the greater is the pressure at that point of the liquid column. Water pressure at any point in a closed container is dependent on the height of the liquid above it.
it depends on the vapour pressure of the liquid
