Question

A container is filled with liquid the depth of the liquid is 60 CM if exertingc in pressure is 2000pa. calculator the density of a liquid

Answer 1

The density of the liquid is 340.136 kg/m³

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

depth of liquid in the container, h = 60 cm = 0.6 m

pressure of the liquid, P = 2000 Pa = 2000 N/m²

The pressure of the liquid is calculated as ;

P = ρgh

where;

ρ is density of the liquid

g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

h is depth of the liquid

Make the density (ρ) the subject of the formula;

`\rho = (P)/(gh) \\\\\rho = (2000)/(9.8 * 0.6)\\\\\rho = 340.136 \ kg/m^3`

Therefore, the density of the liquid is 340.136 kg/m³
