Exercise 7

A tank contains water to a depth of $500 \mathrm {~mm}$ . Determine the water pressure (a) at a depth of 300 $\mathrm { mm }$ , and (b) at the base of the tank. Take the density of water as $1000 \mathrm {~kg} / \mathrm { m } ^ { 3 }$ and the grav itational acceleration, g as $9.81 \mathrm {~m} / \mathrm { s } ^ { 2 }$
