Straws are used to take soft drinks. Why?

$A$ tank $5 \ m$ high is half-filled with water and then is filled to the top with oil of density $0.85 \ g/cm^3$. The pressure at the bottom of the tank,due to these liquids is ....... $g \ dyne/cm^2$.

What is thrust?

Two liquids of densities $\rho_{1}$ and $\rho_{2}$ (where $\rho_{2} = 2\rho_{1}$) are filled behind a vertical wall of height $10 \; m$ and width $w$,as shown in the figure. Each liquid has a height of $h = 5 \; m$. The ratio of the force exerted by the upper liquid on the part $MN$ to the force exerted by the lower liquid on the part $NO$ is (Assume that the liquids do not mix):

$A$ nurse measures the blood pressure of a seated patient to be $190 \,mm$ of $Hg$.

$A$ liquid of mass $1 \ kg$ is filled in a flask as shown in the figure. The force exerted by the flask on the liquid is $(g = 10 \ m/s^2)$ [Neglect atmospheric pressure]:
