Q. A uniformly tapering vessel is filled with a liquid of density $900\, kg / m ^{3}$. The force that acts on the base of the vessel due to the liquid is $\left(g=10\, ms ^{-2}\right)$Physics Question Image

Mechanical Properties of Fluids

Solution:

Force acting on the base
$F=P \times A=h d g A=0.4 \times 900 \times 10 \times 2 \times 10^{-3}$
$=7.2\, N$
