Question

Three vessels of same weight with different diameters at the bottom are filled with equal amount of liquid and placed over the surface.
Which vessel will exert more force on the
surface, explain?​

Answer 1

Answer:

ANSWER

Pressure at the bottom of the vessel=hρg

Force at the bottom of the vessel=hρgA

Since both area and height of liquid filled is maximum in vessel C, force on the base is maximum in vessel C.

However the net force exerted by liquid is the reaction pair of the normal reaction of the force vessels exert on liquid to keep it in equilibrium.

Thus they are all equal to the weight of the liquid which is same in all vess
