A swimmer is swimming in a swimming pool at 60 m below the surface of the water. Calculate the pressure on the swimmer due to water above.(Density of water 1000 kg/m3, g = 9.8 m/s2) |

Answer» Answer: LET atmospheric pressure =P o
=1.05×10 5 Pa Pressure 10m below SURFACE of lake, P=P o
+ρgh =1.05×10 5 +1000×9.8×10 −1.99×10 5 Pa =2 atm (ρ→ DENSITY of water =1000 kg/m 3 , g=9.8m/s 2 h→ Depth=10m). |
