Question 1

A tank of water has a height of 20 meters. Calculate the pressure at the bottom of the tank and discuss how this pressure would change if the tank was filled with oil (density = 800 kg/m³).

💡 Hint: Use the formula for pressure in fluids.

Question 2

Discuss the implications of pressure differences on a submerged object at a depth of 15 meters and how it affects its buoyancy.

💡 Hint: Think about how the pressure at the bottom differs from the top of the object.
