Q.
From the adjacent figure, the correct observation is
A) the pressure on the bottom of the tank A is greater than at the bottom of B
B) the pressure on the bottom of the tank A smaller than at the bottom of B
C) the pressure depends on the shape of the container
D) the pressure on the bottom of A and B is the same
Explanation
(d) Pressure applied by liquid column
$p = h\rho g$
Ie, the pressure depends on the height of liquid column no on its size, so pressure at the bottom of A and B is same.
