An incompressible liquid of density riscontained in a vessel of uniform cross-sectional area A. If the atmo- spheric pressure is p, then the fore acting on a horizontal plane of area a situated at a depth d in liquid is givenby:(1) ap+apgh(2) P÷a +Pgd÷a(3) p+pgd÷ a(4) A(Pgd +p)​

Answer»

ong>Answer:

In an incompressible LIQUID, Pressure increase with increase in depth. HENCE force ACTING on horizontal plane of area a at depth d is given by,

Force = Pa, where p is pressure acting on horizontal plane and a is area of plane.

Pressure of incompressible liquid P acting along horizontal plane is greater than ATMOSPHERIC pressure by ρgd ,where ρ is density of given liquid, g is acceleration due to gravity and d is depth.

P=p+ρgd

Hence Force= (p+ρgd)a

Explanation:

the CORRECT option is d
