$A$ hydraulic automobile lift is designed to lift cars with a maximum mass of $3000 \, kg$. The area of cross-section of the piston carrying the load is $425 \, cm^{2}$. What is the maximum pressure the smaller piston would have to bear?

  • A
    $15.82 \times 10^{5} \, Pa$
  • B
    $1.12 \times 10^{5} \, Pa$

$A$ tall tank filled with water has an irregular shape as shown. The wall $CD$ makes an angle of $45^{\circ}$ with the horizontal,the wall $AB$ is normal to the base $BC$. The lengths $AB$ and $CD$ are much smaller than the height $h$ of water (figure not to scale). Let $p_1, p_2$ and $p_3$ be the pressures exerted by the water on the wall $AB$,base $BC$ and the wall $CD$ respectively. Density of water is $\rho$ and $g$ is acceleration due to gravity. Then,approximately
