jquery select multiple <p> in <div>

Question

HTML:

<div id='example'>
  <p> First paragraph</p>
  <p> Second paragraph</p>
  <p> Third paragraph</p>
</div>

Javascript with JQuery: var paragraphs = $('div#examples p');

This returns an array of HTMLParagraphElement objects. However, I wish to return Jquery objects. (So that I can use e.g:

for(i=0;i<paragraphs.length;i++)
{
   paragraph[i].hide();
}

Is there a way I can easily do this? Thanks.

Answer 1

example:

$('#examples p').hide();

div is not necessary
