Question

The formula for determining the pressure, p, exerted on an object at a depth, h, below the surface of a liquid is p = s + dgh, where s is the atmospheric pressure, d is the density of the liquid, and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

(Pls Explain the Answer in simple terms)

Answer 1

The formula for determining the pressure, p, exerted on an object at a depth, h, below the surface of a liquid is p = s + dgh

`p(pressure) = s(atmospheric \: pressure) + d(density \: of \: the \: liquid)g(acceleration \: due \: to \: gravity)h`

Explanation:

where s is the atmospheric pressure, d is the density of the liquid and g is the acceleration due to gravity.
