Water is filled up to a height h in a beaker of radius R as shown in the figure. The density of water is 
, the surface tension of water is T and the atmospheric pressure is p 0 . Consider a vertical section ABCD of the water column through a diameter of the beaker. The force on water on one side of this section by water on the other side of this section has magnitude
A
B
C
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
Force from right hand side liquid on left hand side liquid,
(i) Due to surface tension force
= 2RT (towards right)
(ii) Due to liquid pressure force
Net force is
