The pressure at the bottom of a tank containing a liquid does not depend on

A

acceleration due to gravity

B

height of the liquid column

C

area of the bottom surface

D

nature of the liquid A beaker containing a liquid of density p moves up with an acceleration

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
