A tall, open container is full of glycerine. At what depth h below the surface of the glycerine is the pressure 2370 Pa greater than atmospheric pressure? The density of glycerine is 1.26X10^3 kg/m^3

Respuesta :

Answer:

So, at the depth of 24 cm below the surface of the glycerine the pressure is  2970 Pa. Hence, this is the required solution.

Explanation:

Given that,

Pressure exerted by the surface of glycerine, P = 2970 Pa and it is greater than atmospheric pressure.

The density of glycerine,  

We need to find the depth h below the surface of the glycerine. The pressure due to some depth is given by :

h = 0.24 meters

or

h = 24 cm
