Factors Affecting Pressure

The pressure ...

Question

The pressure of water on the ground floor is 40,000 Pa and on the first floor is 10,000 Pa. Find the height of the first floor. (Take : density of water = 1000 kg $m^{- 3}$ , g =10 m $s^{- 2}$

Open in App

Solution

Let the height of the tower be $h$ .

So, $Δ P = ρ g h \Rightarrow 40000 - 10000 = 1000 \times 10 \times h \Rightarrow h = 3 m$
