Three identical vessels are filled up to the same height with three different liquids $A, B$ and $C$ of densities $\rho_A, \rho_B$ and $\rho_C$ (where $\rho_A > \rho_B > \rho_C$). The pressure at the bottom of the vessels is:

  • A
    equal in all vessels
  • B
    maximum in vessel containing liquid $C$
  • C
    maximum in vessel containing liquid $B$
  • D
    maximum in vessel containing liquid $A$

Two vessels have the same base area but different shapes. The first vessel takes twice the volume of water that the second vessel requires to fill up to a particular common height. Is the force exerted by the water on the base of the vessel the same in the two cases? If so,why do the vessels filled with water to that same height give different readings on a weighing scale?
