Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

If the atmospheric pressure is 101.3 kPa, and the gauge pressure at a certain point underwater is 50 kPa, what is the absolute pressure at that point?

💡 Hint: Remember to use the gauge pressure relative to atmospheric to find the absolute value!

Question 2

A tank is filled with water that is 5 meters deep. Calculate the pressure at the bottom of the tank.

💡 Hint: Use the specific weight of water and the depth to calculate the pressure.
