Answer:

the pressure of the water at the given depth is 196,200 N/m².

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

density of the water, ρ = 1000 kg/m³

depth of the water, h = 20 m

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.81 m/s²

The pressure at the given depth of the water is calculated as;

P = ρgh

P = 1000 x 9.81 x 20

P = 196,200 N/m²

Therefore, the pressure of the water at the given depth is 196,200 N/m².
