@Fungi,

Here, the question doesn't askes whether the variation is radially inward or outward, so the most appropriate answer is A.

It should be increases with the square of radial distance I.e. C.

Can you describe the answer in detail?

Here, Varies means relative terms.

√P= ρ*g*Z.

Where Z =(w^2*r^2)/2g.

So √P is directly proportional to radius^2.
