Question

See the following 3 diagram and explain in which case the pressure exerted at the bottom will be more?​

Answer 1

Answer:

in second diagram the pressure exerted at the bottom will more because pressure inversely proportional to 1/area.

hence surface area decreases the pressure increases.

Answer 2

Answer:

in second figure the pressure at the bottom will be maximum

Explanation:

since the upper part is exposed to more surface area pressure can be applied with respect to that size but bottom surface have lesser area so the pressure obviously increases as we go down
