4. Water stands 12.0 m deep in a storage tank whose top is open to the atmosphere at
1.00 atm. The density of water is given as 1000 kg/m² and some pressure conversion
are 1 Pa = 1 N/m² while 1 atm = 101 325 Pa.
a) What is the absolute pressure at the bottom of the tank?
b) What is the gauge pressure at the bottom of the tank?

Answer:

[tex]P=217600Pa[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Density [tex]\rho=1000kg/m^3[/tex]

Depth of Water [tex]d=12.0m[/tex]

Generally the equation for Pressure is mathematically given by

 [tex]P=\rho gh[/tex]

 [tex]P=1000*9.8*12[/tex]

 [tex]P=117600N/m^2[/tex]

Therefore

Absolute Pressure=P+P'

Where

P=Pressure under water

P'=Atmospheric Pressure

Therefore

 [tex]P_A=P+P'[/tex]

 [tex]P_A=117,600+10^5[/tex]

 [tex]P=217600Pa[/tex]
