a) A large, open at the top, upright cylindrical tank contains a brine with a density of 1.23 ✕ 103 kg/m3. If the air pressure is 101.3 kPa, determine the absolute pressure (in Pa) in the fluid at a depth of 28.0 m. b) Determine the force (in N) exerted by only the fluid on the window of an instrument probe at this depth if the window is circular and has a diameter of 4.15 cm.
