Asked by Steve

A swimming pool measures 10m x 7m x2m. Calculate the total force exerted by the water against the bottom.

Answers

Answered by Steve
Force = Pressure * Area
Pressure = density * height

density of water is 1 g/cm<sup>3</sup>, so pressure at a depth of 2m is

200cm * 1 g/cm<sup>3</sup> = 200g/cm<sup>2</sup>

Convert mass to weight, and multiply by the area
