Question 4 Fig. shows a container filled with water. Which of the following statements is correct about pressure of water?
(a) Pressure at A> Pressure at B> Pressure at C (b) Pressure at A=Pressure at B=Pressure at C (c) Pressure at A< Pressure at B>Pressure at C (d) Pressure at A< Pressure at B<Pressure at C
Open in App
Solution
(d) Pressure at A< Pressure at B<Pressure at C
Since the height of the water column at C is maximum. Hence, the pressure will be maximum at C, then pressure will be more at B and the minimum pressure will be at A.
