Question

How to calculate static pressure?

Answer 1

Static pressure

1. The pressure exerted on fluid when it is at rest is called static pressure.
2. The weight of the fluid which is at rest is the cause of this static pressure.

Calculation of static pressure

1. Static pressure is defined as $P=\frac{Mg}{A}.$
2. Where M is the mass of the liquid and A is the area where pressure is exerted and g is the acceleration due to gravity.
3. Substituting the known parameters M, g, and A we can easily calculate static pressure.
