Question:
This diagram shows water in a container filled to a depth of 0.50 m. The density of water is 1000 kg m−3.
a. Calculate the pressure at X on the base of the container.
b. Explain why the pressure at X must be equal to the pressure at Y.
c. Explain why the force downwards on the base of the container is larger than the weight of the liquid in the container.
