  • question_answer
    Two vessels A and B of cross-section as shown in figure contain a liquid upto the same height. As the temperature rises, the liquid pressure at the bottom (neglecting expansion of the vessels) will:

    A)                   A                                    B  increase in B, decrease in A

    B)  increase in A, decrease in B

    C)  decrease in both A and B

    D)  increase in both A and B

    Correct Answer: B
