Determine the pressure of a 6 kg barrel of honey with a bottom area of 300 cm2.

To determine the pressure p of a barrel with honey weighing m = 6 kg, the bottom area of which is S = 300 cm ^ 2 = 0.03 m ^ 2, we use the formula p = P: S. Since the weight of the barrel is determined by the formula P = m ∙ g, where the proportionality coefficient g = 9.8 N / kg, then p = (m ∙ g): S, substitute the values of physical quantities and make calculations: p = (6 kg ∙ 9.8 N / kg): 0.03 m ^ 2 = 1960 Pa.
