We have four reservoirs of equal volume filled with water. On which is the pressure and force the water applied on the bottom base (highlighted in red) the highest?
Added by Emily A.
Step 1
Since all four reservoirs have the same volume of water, the height of the water column is the same in each reservoir. Show more…

Four containers are filled with different volumes of water as shown in Figure $P 13.41 .$ Rank the containers in order of decreasing pressure that the water exerts on the bottom of the containers.
The four containers below are filled to the top with water and are open to the air. Rank the containers from the one with the GREATEST pressure to the LEAST pressure at the bottom of the container. II and IV have the same volume of water in them; II and III have the same area at the bottom. I II III IV A) I = II = III = IV B) III > II = IV > I C) III > II > IV > I D) III > IV > II > I E) II = III > IV > I

Four containers are shown in Figure 12.8, each filled with water to the same level. Rank the containers in order of increasing pressure at the indicated depth $h$. Indicate ties where appropriate.
