Question

give reason :
the wall of a dam is made thicker at the bottom? why​

Answer 1

Answer:

The dam. You can see from the diagram that the dam is much thicker at the bottom than it is at the top. This is because the pressure of the water is much greater deeper down and the dam needs to be thick at the bottom so that it is strong enough to withstand this larger pressure.

Answer 2

✒The pressure applied to walls of the dam will be a function of the amount of water that is over that particular point on the wall. So water pressure is very large at the bottom due to its large depth. That's why dams are constructed thicker at their bottoms than at their tops.
