Fluid Mechanics — Easy JEE physics MCQ
The pressure at the bottom of a tank of water of depth $10$ m is (g = $10$ m/s², atmospheric pressure = $10^5$ Pa):
- A. $2 \times 10^5$ Pa
- B. $1.5 \times 10^5$ Pa
- C. $10^5$ Pa
- D. $10^4$ Pa
Solution
$P = P_0 + \rho gh = 10^5 + 1000 \times 10 \times 10 = 10^5 + 10^5 = 2 \times 10^5$ Pa
