Question
A liquid is taken in different shaped vessels as shown in figure.All vessels are filled with same liquid up to same level. Which vessel will have the highest pressure at the bottom in the liquid ?A B B C C D D Equal in all four vessels
Solution
The pressure at the bottom of a liquid does not depend on the shape of the vessel, but rather on the height of the liquid column and the density of the liquid. Since all the vessels are filled up to the same level with the same liquid, the pressure at the bottom of each vessel will be the same. Therefore, the answer is D: Equal in all four vessels.
