Different liquids are poured into four different containers. In which container is the force exerted by the liquid on the bottom of the container the greatest? [Table 20.1]

This question uses a diagram from the original paper, which isn't shown here. Open the full paper from the past papers archive to see it.

Aarea of base /cm²: 10, density of liquid g/cm³: 1.3, depth of liquid /cm: 50
Barea of base /cm²: 20, density of liquid g/cm³: 0.80, depth of liquid /cm: 80
Carea of base /cm²: 40, density of liquid g/cm³: 1.0, depth of liquid /cm: 60
Darea of base /cm²: 50, density of liquid g/cm³: 0.92, depth of liquid /cm: 75

✓ Correct answer

D: area of base /cm²: 50, density of liquid g/cm³: 0.92, depth of liquid /cm: 75
