Question

Calculate hydrostatic pressure at a depth of 1500 cm in sea water of density 1030 kg m-3. (take

g=10 ms-2)​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Pressure = P₀ + hdg

= 10⁵ Pa + (10³ m × 10³ kg/m³ × 10 m/s²)

= 10⁵ Pa + 10⁷ Pa

= 10⁵ [1 + 100]

= 101 × 10⁵ pascals

∴ Pressure at that depth is 101 × 10⁵ pascals
