A filled water tower sits on the top of the highest hill near a city. The cylindrical tower has a height of 55.0 m

Find the pressure (in kPa) on the bottom of the water tower

Respuesta :

Answer:

539 kPa

Explanation:

Pressure equals density times acceleration of gravity times depth.

P = ρgh

Water has a density of 1000 kg/m³, and acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s².

P = (1000 kg/m³) (9.8 m/s²) (55.0 m)

P = 539,000 Pa

P = 539 kPa
