Question

.A vessel contains water up to a height of 5.5 m. Taking the density of water as 1000 kilogram/cubic metre, and acceleration due to gravity as 9.8
metre/second square, the pressure exerted at the base of the vessel is.............
newton/metre square.

5.39
or 539 or 53900​

Answer 1

Answer:

53900 Pa.

Explanation:

Height (h) = 5.5 m

Density of water (p) = 1000 kg/m³

g = 9.8 m/s²

Pressure at the base of the vessel is = hpg

= (5.5*1000*9.8) Pa

= 53900 Pa

Hope this helps.
