A building is 512 m high. What must be the minimum water pressure in a pipe at ground level in order to get water out of a tap in a restaurant on the top floor? Density of water is 1000 kg/m^3, assume the pressure on the top floor is 1 atmosphere (Patm=1.01 x 10^5 Pa).

a. 5 x 10^6 Pa
b. 2 x 10^6 Pa
c. 1 x 10^6 Pa
d. 5 x 10^5 Pa
e. 1 x 10^5 Pa

Respuesta :

Answer:

Pressure =  5 x 10⁶ Pa

Explanation:

Given:

Height of building = 512 m

Find:

Pressure

Computation:

P2 = P1+dgh

P2 = 1 + (1000)(9.8)(512)

P2 = 51.2 atm

Pressure =  5 x 10⁶ Pa
