Question 8

A massive concrete dam is constructed with a significantly broader base compared to its top. This design principle is primarily due to which of the following physical phenomena?

Accepted Answer

C. The hydrostatic pressure exerted by water increases with depth. — The correct answer is C. Hydrostatic pressure in a fluid increases linearly with depth (P = ρgh, where ρ is fluid density, g is acceleration due to gravity, and h is depth). Therefore, the water exerts a much greater force on the lower sections of the dam, necessitating a broader and stronger base to withstand this increased pressure. Options A, B, and D are either incorrect physical explanations or secondary design considerations not directly related to the pressure profile.

Answer

A. The increased kinetic energy of water flowing at greater depths.

Answer

B. The necessity to anchor the dam more firmly into the bedrock.

Answer

D. The need to dissipate heat generated by water friction at lower levels.
