Answer:


20.61* 10^(5)Nm^(-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

h=20 cm=0.20m

1m=100 cm

Density of water=
\rho=1.0* 10^3 kg/m^3

We have to find the pressure experienced by driver at that depth.

Atmospheric pressure, P0=101 kPa

Pressure experience by driver


P=\rho hg+P_0

Where
g=9.8


P=1.0* 10^3* 0.20* 9.8+101


P=2061KPa

1 KPa=
1000Nm^(-2)


P=2061* 1000=2061000N/m^2


P=20.61* 10^(5)Nm^(-2)
