Question
Figure here shows the vertical cross-section of a vessel filled with a liquid of density ρ. The normal thrust per unit area on the walls of the vessel at point. P, as shown, will be


Options
A.h ρ g
B.H ρ g
C.(H − h) ρ g
D.(H − h) ρ g cosθ
Solution
ρg(H − h)
because pressure varies with height.
