Fluids exert pressure on the base and walls of the container in which they are enclosed due to their weight.
Fluids exert pressure in a container by the random motion of their molecules, which collide with the container walls. These collisions generate force per unit area, resulting in pressure uniformly distributed on the walls.
Fluids exert pressure in a container by applying force perpendicular to the container walls. This pressure, caused by the fluid’s weight and molecular motion, acts equally in all directions at a given depth, following Pascal’s principle.
