- What is the pressure at the bottom of a 4.30m deep pool filled with water if the atmospheric pressure is 1.013x10 Pa?arrow_forwardA tank containing water and pressurized air is connected to a manometer as shown below. The listed heights are h1 = 6.2 in, h2 = 4.7 in, and h3 = 10.4 in. If the measured barometric pressure is 13.96 psia, what is the pressure of the air in the tank? (Hints: note the units; assume the density of water is 62.4 lbm/ft^3arrow_forwardIf a swimmer in fresh water (density 1,000 kg/m cubed ) has a volume of 0.084 m cubed , what is the buoyant force (in N) on the swimmer when they are completely submerged?arrow_forward
