Question

A tank of 6m height is completely filled with water. what is the pressure exerted by water at the base of the same tank? calculate the pressure exerted if the tank is filled up to 2/3 part of its height with water. use acceleration due to gravity = 10m/s squared

Answer 1

Answer:

Correct option is

A

60000

Hydrostatic pressure = ϱgh

given ϱ=10

3

kg/m

3

1g=10ms

−2

,h=6m

Pressure = 10

3

m
