NEET Physics Pressure in Fluids MCQ Question
Consider a U-tube manometer filled with a liquid. If the pressure on one side of the U-tube is greater than the other, what will be observed in the liquid levels on both sides of the U-tube?
The liquid level will be higher on the side with lower pressure.
The liquid level will rise equally on both sides.
The liquid level will be higher on the side with higher pressure.
The liquid levels will not change on either side.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
In a U-tube manometer, the liquid level is higher on the side with lower pressure due to the pressure difference causing the liquid to move.
