Why is the water reservoir of a dam thicker at the bottom?

Answers

Answered by vijayraiadv

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.
