A liquid is filled upto height `h` in a vessel, as shown. Find correct option(s):

A

If `alpha=beta`, horizontal component of forces on left and right side of inclined faces will be equal and opposite.

B

If `alpha!=beta`, horizontal component of forces on left and right side of inclined faces will be equal and opposite.

C

If `A` is the area of the base of the vessel, then force exerted by liquid on walls of the vessel is greater than `(P_(atm)+rhogh)A`.

D

As above, the force exerted by liquid on walls is equal to `(P_(atm)+rhogh)A`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, B, C

The forces on the walls of the vessel are shown. The liquid is in equalibrium so net force on the liquid in any direction has to be zero (either `alpha=beta` or `alpha=beta)`
