Question
To what height h should a cylindrical vessel of diameter d be filled with a liquid so that the total force on the vertical surface of the vessel be equal to the force on the bottom : -
Options
A.h = d
B.h = 2d
C.h = 3d
D.h = d/2
Solution
Force on bottom = Pressure area
= hρg ×
..........(i)
force on vertical surface
= Pressure × area
=
.........(ii)
∵ according to question

= hρg ×
force on vertical surface
= Pressure × area
=
