How much will the pressure on the bottom of a cubic vessel increase if 100 liters of water are poured into it?

Initial data: V (volume of water poured into the vessel) = 100 l (0.1 m3); S (bottom area of a cubic vessel) = 1 m2.

Reference data: ρw (density of water poured into the vessel) = 1000 kg / m3; g (acceleration due to gravity) ≈ 10 m / s2.

The increase in pressure at the bottom of a cubic vessel is determined by the formula: P = ρw * g * h = ρw * g * V / S.

Let’s make the calculation: P = 1000 * 10 * 0.1 / 1 = 1000 Pa (1 kPa).

Answer: The pressure on the bottom of the cubic vessel will increase by 1 kPa.
