True or False: According to Pascal's law, pressure applied to a confined fluid is transmitted equally in all directions.
Think about how pressure acts in a balloon.
An engineer is designing a water tank 10 meters deep. Calculate the pressure at the bottom of the tank if the density of water is 1000 kg/m³. Use the formula P = ρgh.
Remember to multiply the density by gravity and height.
