b a c The three tanks above are filled with water to the same depth.All the tanks have an equal height. Tank B has the middle surfacearea at the bottom, tank C the greatest and tank A the least. Foreach of the following statements, select the correct option fromthe pull-down menu. It is true,false, greater than, less than,orequal.The force exerted by the water on the bottom of tank A is.... the force exerted by the water on the bottom of tankC.
The water in tank A exerts an upward force on the sidesof the tank.
The pressure at the bottom of tank B is .... thepressure at the bottom of tank C.
The pressure exerted on the bottom of tank A is lessthan for the other two tanks.
The force due to the water on the bottom of tank A is.... the weight of the water in the tank.
Explanation / Answer
The force exerted by the water on the bottomof tank A is greaterthan the force exerted by the water on the bottom oftank C.The water in tank A exerts an upward force on the sidesof the tank. False
The pressure atthe bottom of tank B is equal to thepressure at the bottom of tank C.
The pressureexerted on the bottom of tank A is less than for the other twotanks. False
The force due tothe water on the bottom of tank Ais equal .the weight of the water in the tank.
a. Pressuredepends on height of liquid. b. Force= pressure * area
