A reservoir is filled with a liquid of density 2000kgm-3. Calculate the depth at which the pressure in the liquid will equal to 9100Nm-2 [g = 10ms-2]

  • A. 0.262m
  • B. 0.455m
  • C. 0.664m
  • D. 0.819m

Correct Answer: B. 0.455m

Explanation

h = \(\frac{p}{eg} = \frac{9100}{2000 \times 10} = 0.455m\)
