Question

You jump into the deep end of Legion Pool and swim to the bottom with a pressure gauge. The gauge at the bottom reads 39,240 N/m2. How deep is the pool if the density of water is 1000 kg/m3?

Answer 1

Answer:

Height of the pool will be 4.004 m

Explanation:

We have given gauge pressure at the bottom $P=39240N/m^2$

Density of water $\rho =1000kg/m^3$

We have to find the height of the pool

We know that gauge pressure is given by

$P=\rho gh$

$39240=1000\times 9.8\times h$

h = 4.004 m

Height of the pool will be 4.004 m
