Answer» <P>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 |
