Detailed Solution

Given that the three vessels A, B and C are filled with same liquid of same volume

m=ρlv

All three vessels have same base area but different shapes as shown.

We know P=FA×hhmghv=ρgh

The  pressure of liquid coloumn depends on h1andρ1andg .

Here we observe the height of liquid in three vessel is not same

hA<hB<hC

So the PA<PB<PC

We get pressure in vessel C is maximum.
