QNEET-2022-Ph-512: NEET 2022 Physics - Class 11 NEET-2022-Ph-512 Solution: Two copper vessels A and B have the same base area but of…

Two copper vessels A and B have the same base area but of different shapes. A takes twice the volume of water as that B requires to fill upto a particular common height. Then the correct statement among the following is: Vessel B weighs twice that of A. Pressure on the base area of vessels A and B is same. Pressure on the base area of vessels A and B is not same. Both vessels A and B weigh the same.

Multiple Choice Options

  • A Vessel B weighs twice that of A.
  • B Pressure on the base area of vessels A and B is same.
  • C Pressure on the base area of vessels A and B is not same.
  • D Both vessels A and B weigh the same.

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

In hydrostatic condition, P = P 0 + _ g h Here, P : absolute pressure at depth h, P 0 is atmospheric pressure Since, height of liquid in both vessel is same therefore pressure on the base of both vessel will be same.
