Three liquids of equal masses are taken in three identical cubical vessels 
and C. Their densities are 
and 
respectively. But 
. The force exerted by the liquid on the base of the cubical vessel is
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
Pressure exerted by the liquid on the base of the vessel is
where, 
density of the liquid
acceleration due to gravity
height of the liquid column in the vessel
Density 
Substituting the value of h in equation (i), we get
Force exerted by the liquid on the base of the vessel is
Pressure 
Area
