A cylinder of mass M and density `d_(1)` hanging from a string, is lowered into a vessel of cross-sectional area A, containing a liquid of density `d_(2) (d_(2) lt d_(1))` until it is fully immersed. The increase in pressure at the bottom of the vessel is

Options

A. `(Md_(2)g)/(d_(1)A)`
B. `(Mg)/(A)`
C. `(Md_(1)g)/(d_(2)A)`
D. zero

Answer

A

Explanation

Increase in pressure
`=("Force exetted by the cylinder on the liquid ")/A=("Upthrust")/A`
