An object of uniform density is allowed ...

An object of uniform density is allowed to float in water kept in a beaker. The object has triangular cross-section as shown in the figure. If the water pressure measured at the three points A, B and C below the object are `P_(A), P_(B) " and " P_(C )` respectively. Then

A

`p_(A) gt p_(B) gt p_(C )`

B

`p_(A) gt p_(B) lt p_(C )`

C

`p_(A) =p_(B)=p_(C )`

D

`p_(A)=p_(B) lt p_(C )`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
