Answer :
If we consider a tank of height h , filled with water then the pressure at the bottom surface of tank will be (look at the figure also)-
As the pressure at the surface of water is atmospheric, so
Pressure at a depth h below the surface of water = atmospheric pressure + pressure due to water column of height h.
Given that height of tank is h= 10m
The atmospheric pressure = 100 kPa
Density of water =1g/cm3 = 103 kg m–3
The gravitational constant g = 10 m s–2
Then the pressure at a depth h will be = atmospheric pressure + pressure at bottom
= 100kpa +
= 105 N/m2 +103k/m310m/s2
10m
= 200kpa
