2 m
10 m
20 m

4.
In a system of connecting vessels, a liquid rises to the same level in all the vessels because:
the vessels have the same shape
all points at the same level inside a liquid at rest have the same pressure
the vessels have the same areas
of surface tension
5.

the volume of water is larger there
pressure increases with depth
the water is colder there
the density of water increases
