Given:
Height of tank(h)=76cm=76/100=0.76m
Atmospheric Pressure (ρatm.)=1 atm
Pressure at the bottom of the tank(ρ)=?
Acceleration due to gravity(g)=9.8m/s²
Density of mercury(d)=13546 kg/m³
∴ Pressure of Hg(ρHg) = =13546×0.76×9.8= 100890.608 P = 1 atm
To find the pressure (ρ) at the bottom of the tank
Solution:
ρ=ρatm+ ρHg
ρ=1+1
ρ=2 atm
Again,
To find the pressure (ρ') at the middle of the tank where ρHg =1atm/2
ρ'=ρatm+ρHg
ρ'=1+1/2
ρ'=1+0.5
ρ'=1.5 atm
Hence, the pressure of at the bottom of the tank and at the middle is 2 atm and 1.5 atm respectively if the standard atmospheric pressure is 1 atm.
