MDCAT Physics MCQ #1850

  1. Question 1

    Q1. The pressure difference between two points in a fluid at rest is given by

    • A) ρg(h1 - h2)
    • B) ρg(h2 - h1)
    • C) ρg(h1 + h2)
    • D) ρg(h2 / h1)

    Answer: ρg(h1 - h2)

    Explanation: The pressure difference is given by ρg times the height difference. Option B is incorrect because it reverses the height difference.
