A crane was placed in a tank filled with oil at a depth of 3 m. determine the pressure on the tap.

Task data: h (depth of installation of the crane in the tank) = 3 m.

Reference values: ρн (oil density) = 800 kg / m3; g (acceleration due to gravity) ≈ 10 m / s2.

The oil pressure on the installed valve can be determined by the formula: P = ρн * g * h.

Calculation: P = 800 * 10 * 3 = 24 * 10 ^ 3 Pa = 24 kPa.

Answer: A pressure of 24 kPa acts on the oil side valve installed in the tank.
