Solution

The correct option is B $P_{C} < P_{A} < P_{B} < P_{D}$
Pressure at the bottom of the vessel is directly proportional to height of the water column. C has the shortest water column. Thus it will have lowest pressure at the bottom. Similarly, A will second lowest and B will have third lowest pressures. And D will have the highest pressure at the bottom.
