Answer 1

The pressure inside a liquid at the same depth will be equal. But the liquid pressure differs with the height of the liquid. The pressure of the liquid at a depth is proportional to the depth.(P∝h)

Pressure at A< Pressure at B< Pressure at C

Answer 2

Answer:

The pressure at the base of each vessel is given by ρgh where ρ is a density of water, g is acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height of water column in that vessel.

So pressure at a base is directly proportional to the height of water level.

So decreasing order of pressure is D>B>A>C
