Example 2:
Figure above shows the cross section of a sea near a seaside. Find the difference of the pressure between point A and point B. [Density of seawater = 1050kg/m³]
Answer:
Density, ρ = 1050kg/m³
Gravitational Field Strength, g = 10 N/kg
At point A:
Depth, h = 0.8 m
At point B:
Depth, h = 3 m
Pressure Difference
