Calculate the pressure at a depth of 50 m below the surface of the sea. The density of sea water is 1024kg/m3
512000 Pa
The expression of pressure at the bottom of a liquid of height ‘h’ and density ‘d’ is given by ρgh.
The given values are: d=1024kg/m3, h = 50 m and g = 10 m/s2
Thus, pressure =ρgh=1024×50×10=512000Pa.
