MCQ
A beaker containing a liquid is kept inside a big closed jar. If the air inside the jar is continuously pumped out, the pressure in the liquid near the bottom of the liquid will
  • A
    Increases
  • Decreases
  • C
    Remain constant
  • D
    First decrease and then increase

Answer

Correct option: B.
Decreases
b
(b) Total pressure at (near) bottom of the liquid
$P = {P_0} + h\rho g$
As air is continuously pumped out from jar (container), ${P_0}$ decreases and hence $P$  decreases.
