Question

Verify / Show that that the SI unit of hρg is N/m^2

Answer 1

Explanation:

I must use d for density instead of rho.

hdg = ( m ) ( kg/m^3 ) ( m/s^2 ) =,kg / m - s^2

From Newton's Second Law :

N = kg - m / s^2

kg = N - s^2 / m

Substitute above for kg :

hdg = [ ( N ) ( s^2 ) / ( m ) ] [ 1 / ( m ) ( s^2 ) ] = N/m^2
