To find out the pressure exerted by the specified vessel with mercury on the table, consider the formula: Pх = Fт / S = P / S, where P is the weight of the specified vessel with mercury (P = 32 N); S is the area of the base of the vessel (S = 8 cm2 = 8 * 10-4 m2).

Let’s perform the calculation: Px = P / S = 32/8 * 10 ^ -4 = 4 * 10 ^ 4 Pa.

Answer: The pressure of the indicated vessel with mercury on the stage is 40 kPa.
