Question

6 A tank for storing liquid has a base of area 1.5 m². What is the pressure on the base of the
tank when it contains:
a) water weighing 4500 N?
b) oil weighing 6000 N?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

a) Pressure = 4500N/1.5m² = 3000N/m²

b) Pressure = 6000N/1.5m² = 4000N/m²

Answer 2

Answer:

Pressure =Force÷Area

=4500÷1.5=3000Pa

=6000÷1.5=4000Pa
