Equal volume of a liquid is poured into ...

Equal volume of a liquid is poured into containers A and B where area of cross-section of container A is double the area of cross-section of container B. If `P_(A)andP_(B)` are pressures exerted at the bottom of the containers, then find `P_(A):P_(B)`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`(P_(B))/(2)`
`V_(A)=V_(B)`
`A_(A)xxh_(A)=A_(B)xxh_(B)`
`2A_(B)h_(A)=A_(B)xxh_(B)`
`h_(B)=2h_(A)`
`P_(B)=h_(B)dg,P_(A)=h_(A)dg`
`P_(B)=2P_(A),P_(A)=(P_(B))/(2)`
