Equal volumes of a liquid are poured in ...

Equal volumes of a liquid are poured in the three vessels `A, B` and `C (h_(1) lt h_(2) lt h_(3))`. All the vessels have the same base area. Select the correct alternatives.

A

The force on the base will be maximum in vessel `A`.

B

The force on the base will be maximum in vessel `C`.

C

Net force exerted by the liquid in all the three vessels is equal.

D

Net force exerted by the liquid in vessel `A` is maximum.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B, C

Height of liquid in vessel `C` is maximum. Therefore, force on the base of vessel `C` is maximum `[=(P_(0)=hrhog)A]`. Net force on all the three vessels `=` weight of the liquid, which is the same for all thre vessels.
