Some liquid is filled in a cylindrical vessel of radius $R$. Let $F_1$ be the force applied by the liquid on the bottom of the cylinder. Now the same liquid is poured into a vessel of uniform square cross-section of side $R$. Let $F_2$ be the force applied by the liquid on the bottom of this new vessel. Then:
