A uniformly tapering vessel is filled with a liquid of density `900 kg // m`. The force that acts on the base of the vessel due to the liquid is `(g = 10 ms^(-2))`

A

`3.6 N`

B

`7 2 N`

C

`9.0 N`

D

`14.4 N`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Force acting on the base `F = P xx A = "hdgA" = 0.4xx900xx10xx2xx10^(-3) = 7.2 N`
