Answer:

126423.413

Step-by-step explanation:

assuming you want absolute P

P = P_atm + rho g h

look up density of water (rho) in kg/m^3

then apply the numbers

I get 126423.413

Answer:

The answer to your question is 24525 Pa

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

height = 2.50 m

density of water = 1000 kg/m³

gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Formula

P = ρgh

Hydrostatic pressure is the pressure generated by the weight of a liquid above a point.

- Substitution

P = (1000)(9.81)(2.5)

- Simplification

P = 24525 kg= 24525 Pa
