Answer:
The gauge pressure is equal to 147 kPa.
Explanation:
The pressure exerted by fluid is given by :
[tex]P=\rho gh[/tex]
Where
[tex]\rho[/tex] is density of water
h is height
So, put all the values,
[tex]P=1000\times 9.8\times 15\\\\P=147000\ Pa[/tex]
or
P = 147 kPa
So, the gauge pressure is equal to 147 kPa.
Answer:
The gauge pressure is 147000 Pa.
Explanation:
Height, h = 15 m
density of water, d= 1000 kg/m^3
gravity, g = 9.8 m/s^2
The gauge pressure is the pressure exerted by the fluid.
The pressure exerted by the fluid is given by
P = h d g
P = 15 x 1000 x 9.8 = 147000 Pa
