Question

What is the pressure exerted by a column of fresh water 10m high
(p=1000kg/m3 and g=10m/s)​

Answer 1

• Height (h) = 10 m
• Density (ρ) = 1000 Kg/m^3
• Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s^2
• We know, pressure in a fluid = hρg
• Therefore, the pressure exerted by a column of fresh water
• = hρg
• = (10 × 1000 × 10) Pa
• = 100000 Pa

Answer:

100000 Pa
