What force does water exert on the base of a tank of base area 1.5m^(2) when it is filled with water upto a height of 1m (rhoH_(2)o = 10^(3) kg//m^(3).P_(0) = 10^(5)Pa and g=10m//s^(2))

Answer»

Solution :Pressure at the bottom of the CONTAINER is P=`P_(0)+hrhog = 10^(5) +1xx10^(3)xx10= 1.1 x 10^(5)PA`
Then force DUE to water on the base is`F_("base")=(1.1 xx 10(5)Pa 1.5m^(2))`
`=1.65xx10^(5)N`
