A beaker is filled with a liquid of density `rho` upto a height h If the beaker is at rest, the mean pressure at the walls is:

A

0

B

`hrhog`

C

`hrho(g)/(3)`

D

`2hrhog`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Mean pressure at the walls of the breaker`=(0+hrhog)/(2)=hrho(g)/(2)`
