The pressure of water at bottom in a lake is 3/2 times that at half depth where the water barometer reads 10 m. The depth of the lake is |
|
Answer» LET the point at HALF depth be X, P1=P+dgx Let the depth of lake be 2X, P2=P+dg2x P2=3/2×P1 2P2=3P1 2 (P+dg2x)=3 (P+dgx) 2P+4dgx=3P + 3dgx P=dgx x=P/dg x=10^5/10000 (d=10^3kg/m^3) (P=10^5pa)
But depth of lake is 2x 2x=2×10=20m |
