Question

the tank is filled with oil of density 850kg/m² to a depth of 1.5m g=10N/kg calculate the force exerted by the oil base of the tank (weigh of the oil​

Answer 1

Answer:

Given,

Density (p) = 850 kg/m³

Depth (d) = 1.5 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Atmospheric Pressure = 101300 Pa

Total Pressure = 101300 + dpg

= 101300 + (1.5*850*10)

= 101300 + 12750 Pa

= 114050 Pa

Now, this is the total pressure exerted by the oil on the bottom of the tank. If you want to find the force then please give the area of the tank and solve it by: Pressure = Force/Area

I hope this helps.
