Hi everyone,
Could anyone help me with this question.
A lake has an average temperature of 10degrees celcius and a maximum depth of 40 m . if the atmospheric pressure is 598mmHg , what is the absolute pressure at the bottom of the lake? what is the gauge pressure?
(mercury density = 13600kg/m.cubed)
water density @ 10degrees celcius = 999.7 kg/m.cubed
I got 49200m for the first part, not sure how to do the second part.
