Question

A tank for storing liquid as a base of area 1.5 meters square. What is the pressure on the base of the tank when it contains water weighting 4500n

Answer 1

3000 Nm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

We must remember that pressure is defined as force per unit area.

We have been given the following information in the question;

Area of the tank= 1.5 m^2

Weight of water in the tank = 4500N

And;

P = F/A

F= force

A = area

P = 4500 N/1.5m^2

P= 3000 Nm^2
