Solution

The correct option is D
equal in all the vessels

If the mass of liquid contained in the three vessels are equal, then the force due to weight of liquid will also be equal. As the containers are of same size and share, the force at the base for all the three case remains the same as F = P $\times$ A

Hence D is correct option
