Exercise 2

Two open tanks have the same bottom area, but different shapes. When the depth, h, of a liquid in the two tanks is the same, the pressure on the bottom of the two tanks will be the same. But the weight of the liquid in each of the tanks is different. How do you account for this apparent paradox?
