Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
A reservoir is 30 meters deep, filled with water (density = 1000 kg/m³). Calculate the pressure at the bottom of the reservoir.
💡 Hint: Remember how to apply the pressure formula based on depth.
Consider a cylindrical tank holding oil. If the tank is 2 meters tall and filled with oil of density 850 kg/m³, what is the pressure at the bottom of the tank?
💡 Hint: Similar to water, the density of oil will affect the pressure calculated.
