The area of base of a cylindrical vessel is 300 cm 2 . Water (density = 1000 kg m -3 ) is poured into it up to a depth of 6 cm. Calculate (a) the pressure and (b) the thrust of water on the base. (g = 10 m s -2 ).

(a) As we know, Pressure due to water column of height h = hρg Given, ρ = 1000 kg m -3 g = 10 m s -2 h = 6 cm Converting cm to m 100 cm = 1 m So, 6 cm = x 6 = 0.06 m Hence, h = 0.06 m Substituting the values in the formula above we get, Hence, Pressure = 600 Pa (b) As we know, Pressure (P) = A = 300 cm 2 Converting cm 2 into m 2 100 cm = 1 m So, 100 cm x 100 cm = 1 m 2 Hence, 300 cm 2 = Therefore, A = 3 x 10 -2 m 2 Substituting the values in the formula we get, Hence, thrust = 18 N

(a) Calculate the height of a water column which will exert on it's base the same pressure as the 70 cm column of mercury. Density of mercury is 13.6 g cm^-3.
(b) Will the height of the water column in part (a) change if the cross section of the water column is made wider ?
