Determine the height of the milk can if it is known that the pressure of the milk at the bottom

Determine the height of the milk can if it is known that the pressure of the milk at the bottom of the can is 5 kPa, and the density of the milk is 1029 kg / m³.

Given: P (pressure that milk creates at the bottom of the can) = 5 kPa (5 * 10 ^ 3 Pa).

Constants: g (acceleration of gravity) = 9.81 m / s2; by condition we take ρm (milk density) = 1029 kg / m3.

We express and calculate the desired height of the can from the formula: P = ρm * g * h and h = P / (ρm * g).

Let’s make a calculation: h = 5 * 10 ^ 3 / (1029 * 9.81) = 0.495 m (49.5 cm).

Answer: The desired height of the can is 49.5 centimeters
