16. Please show the solution in detail Identical size lead and aluminum cubes are suspended at different depths by two wires in a large vat of water. Leadis denser than aluminum and aluminum is denser than water. Which cube experiences a greater force on its lowerface?Alumi-numLeadthe lead cubethe samethe aluminum cube

The pressure in a liquid increases with depth The pressure at a depth d is given as P = ρgd Where ρ is density of waterThe lead block is lower than aluminium block which means it's lower face is at more depth. Pressure at lower face of lead block > pressure at lower face of aluminium block PL > PA Pressure is given as P = force/area P = f/A fL/A > fA/A Area A of both block is same fL > fA Thus force at lower face of lead is more than force at lower face of aluminium. Answer is : the lead cube.
