Answer:
Explanation:
Hydrostatic pressure due to a water column of height h can be given by the following expression.
P = hρg
where ρ is density of water and g is acceleration due to gravity .
Substituting the values.
P = 380 x 1000 x 9.8
= 3.72 x 10⁶ Pa.
Answer:
[tex]F=\dfrac{3.72\times 10^6\ Pa}{A}\ N[/tex]
Explanation:
Given that,
The density of water, d = 1000 kg/m³
Depth, h = 380 m
We need to find the force exerted on a thresher shark's eye by the hydrostatic pressure in ocean water. The force exerted by the hydrostatic pressure is given by :
[tex]P=\rho gh[/tex]
Put all the values,
[tex]P=1000\times 9.8\times 380\\\\P=3.72\times 10^6\ Pa[/tex]
Force exerted,
F = P/A
So,
[tex]F=\dfrac{3.72\times 10^6\ Pa}{A}\ N[/tex]
Where
A is the area of crosss section
Hence, this is the required solution.
