Properties Of Solids And Liquids Question 283
Question: A uniformly tapering vessel is filled with a liquid of density 900 kg/m3. The force that acts on the base of the vessel due to the liquid is $ (g=10m{{s}^{-2}}) $
Options:
A)3.6 N
B)7.2 N
C)9.0 N
D)14.4 N
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: B
Solution:
Force acting on the base $ F=P\times A=hdgA $
$ =0.4\times 900\times 10\times 2\times {{10}^{-3}}=7.2N $
