A swimming pool of depth 2.5 m is filled with ordinary (pure) water ( = 1000 kg/m
Question:
A swimming pool of depth 2.5 m is filled with ordinary (pure) water (ρ = 1000 kg/m3).
(a) What is the pressure at the bottom of the pool?
(b) When the pool is filled with very salty water, the pressure changes by 5.0 × 103 Pa. What is the difference between the density of the salt water and the density of pure water?
Step by Step Answer:
The pressure at the bottom of a column of fluid depends on the density of the fluid and the height ...View the full answer
