Define Pressure in fluids.

Answer»

Those substances, which can flow easily, are called fluids. All liquids and gases are fluids. A solid exerts pressure on a surface due to its weight. Similarly, fluids have weight, and they also exert pressure on the base and walls of the container in which they are enclosed. Pressure exerted in any confined mass of fluid is transmitted undiminished in all directions. In other words, a fluid (liquid or gas) exerts pressure in all directions – even upwards.
