The vessels A and B of equal volume and weight are immersed in water to a depth h. The vessel A has an opening at the bottom through which water can enter. If the work done in immersing A and B are WAand WB respectively, then
A
WA=WB
B
WA<WB
C
WA>WB
D
Answer
WA<WB
Explanation
Solution
When the vessels are immersed in water, work has to be done against up-thrust force but due to opening at the bottom in vessel A, up-thrust force goes on decreasing. So work done will be less in this case.
