Answer:
The Correct answer is Option D
Explanation:
- When you will remove your hand, you will find the card stays in place and the water does not flow out. This is because air exerts pressure on the card from below to keep the card in place. Here, the pressure exerted by air upwards is more than the pressure exerted by water downwards.
