normal
Equal mass of three liquids are kept in there identical cylindrical vessels $A, B $ $\&$ $ C$. The densities are $\rho_A$, $\rho_B$ and $\rho_C$ with $\rho_A < \rho_B < \rho_C$ . The force on base will be maximum in vessel:-
A
$A$
B
$B$
C
$C$
D
equal in all
Solution
Force will be same in all the vessels equal to their weights.
$Note:$ pressure will also be same in all the three vessels at the base. the liquid having lesser density will have more height in the vessel due to larger volume.
This phenomenon is known as Hydrostatic Paradox.
