Question

calculate the pressure exterted by liquid having a density of 13600 kg/m3 and a depth of 12 meter.

Answer 1

The density of the liquid is,

$d=13600kg/m^3$

The depth is,

$h=12\text{ m}$

The pressure at any depth for a liquid is given by,

$P=\text{hdg}$

Substituting the values we get,

$\begin{gathered} P=12\times13600\times9.8 \\ =1.599\times10^6N/m^2 \end{gathered}$

The required pressure at that depth is,

$1.599\times10^6N/m^2$
