Four vessels A, B, C and D have different shapes and hold different amount of water. Which of the following is correct.

A

`P_(E) gt P_(F) gt P_(G) gt P_(H)`

B

`P_(E) lt P_(F) lt P_(G) lt P_(H)`

C

`P_(E) = P_(F) = P_(G) = P_(H)`

D

`P_(E) = P_(F) gt P_(G) = P_(H)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
The shape of the container does not affect the pressure. The four vessels A, B, C and D have different shapes and hold different amount of water. The free surface of water in all vessels are in same horizontal plane. The pressure at the four points E, F, G and H lying in the same horizontal plane will be same.
