Figure (b) shows the variation of pressure (`p`) with depth (`h`) along a vertical wall supporting two liquids of different densities as shown in Fig. (a). Identify the correct variation of pressure in the liquid of density `rho_(2)`.

Explanation

The inclination of the pressure diagram with the vertical wall is proportional with density of the liquid. Since `rho_(2)gtrho_(1)`, therefore inclination of the lower diagram is always more than that of the upper one.

The diagram a is correct.
The diagram `b` and `c` are not possible.
