Find the pressure at the bottom of vessel 76cm deep filled with mercury whose density is 13.6 g/cm3.

1 answer

We can use the formula for pressure:

P = ρgh

where P is pressure, ρ is density, g is acceleration due to gravity, and h is depth.

Plugging in the values, we get:

P = (13.6 g/cm3) x (9.81 m/s2) x (0.76 m)
P = 99.7 kPa

Therefore, the pressure at the bottom of the vessel is 99.7 kPa.
