Determine the density of the liquid poured into a cylindrical vessel if a column of liquid with a height of h = 40 cm

Determine the density of the liquid poured into a cylindrical vessel if a column of liquid with a height of h = 40 cm produces pressure on the bottom of the vessel p = 2840 Pa.

Initial data: the liquid is in a cylindrical vessel; h (height of the liquid in the vessel) = 40 cm (0.4 m); P (bottom pressure value) = 2840 Pa.

Reference values: by condition g (acceleration of gravity) = 10 N / kg.

The density of the liquid poured into a cylindrical vessel can be expressed from the formula: P = ρ * g * h, whence ρ = P / (g * h).

Calculation: ρ = 2840 / (10 * 0.4) = 710 kg / m3.

Answer: A liquid with a density of 710 kg / m3 is poured into a cylindrical vessel.
