The diagram shows a tank full of water. The mass of water in the tank is m. The density of the water is rho. The height of water in the tank is h. Which equation gives the pressure p due to the water at the bottom of the tank?
p = h x rho x g
p = m x g x h
p = m x rho x g
p = m x rho x h
Which equation is used to calculate the pressure that the object exerts?
mass of the object / area of contact
weight of the object / area of contact
mass of the object x area of contact
weight of the object x area of contact
