A beaker is filled with a liquid of density ρ1 up to a certain height. A is a point, h m downwards from the free surface of the liquid as shown. The liquid is replaced by equal volume of another liquid of density ρ2. If ρ1 > ρ2, how will the pressure at point A change?
(a) remain same
(b) increase
(c) decrease
(d) become zero
This question was posed to me during an interview for a job.
My query is from Pressure Distribution in a Fluid topic in chapter Pressure and Its Measurement of Fluid Mechanics
