A cuboid `(axxaxx2a)` is filled with two immiscible liquid of density `2rho&rho` as shown in the figure. Neglecting atmospheric pressure ratio of force on base & side wall of the cuboid is
(a). `2:3`
(b). `1:3`
(c). `5:6`
(d). `6:5`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`F_(b)=(2rhogh+rhogh)a^(2)=3rhogha^(2),F_(w)=[(rhogh)/(2)]ah+(2rhogh)ah=(5)/(2)rhogha^(2)` [here `h=a`], `(F_(b))/(F_(w))=(3)/(5//2)=((6)/(5))`
