Question

3. Fig.11.3 shows a container filled with water. Which of the following statements is correct about pressure of

water?

(a) Pressure at A> Pressure at B> Pressure at C

(b) Pressure at A=Pressure at B=Pressure at C

(c) Pressure at A< Pressure at B>Pressure at C

(d) Pressure at A< Pressure at B​

Answer 1

Answer:

option (a)

Explanation:

If the point A is the lowermost point followed by point B with point C at the top, then option (a) is correct

Answer 2

Answer:

(d) Pressure at A< Pressure at B

Explanation:

The pressure at A is less than the pressure at B.Because A is nearly at the surface compared to B.The depth of B is higher than that of A.As depth increases ,the pressure increases.That is,depth is directly proportional to the pressure.

When we consider the point C,it has the highest pressure among the points A,B,C in the container.

Considering the options given above,the option suits with the diagram is (d).
