Difference in the levels of water in the two tubes = 50cm.
Explanation:
- Area of wider tube (A) = 900cm2
- Weight of the boy (m) = 45kg
- Difference in the levels of water in the two tubes (h)= ?
- As per Pascal’s law, even though the left side tube area is smaller than the right side tube area, the pressure is transmitted equally in all directions through the liquid.
Hence,
- P0 + F/A = P0 + ρhg
- [P0 = Atmospheric pressure
- ρ = density of water = 1000 kg/m3
- g = gravitational field strength = 10ms-²]
- ⟹ F/A = ρhg
- ⟹ mg/A = ρhg
- ⟹ m/A = ρh
- ⟹ h = m/(A × ρ)
- ⟹ h= 45/ ( 900 × 10-4 × 1000) = 1/2
- ⟹ h=0.5 m =50 cm
