Kerosene with a density of 800 kg / m3, poured into a vessel 60 cm high, exerts pressure on the bottom of the vessel …

Pressure is a physical quantity that shows the force acting on a unit of surface.

Pressure = P, we can calculate it by the formula:

P = R * g * h.

We transfer all data to the SI system, then h = 0.6 m, r = const, R = 800 kg / m3.

P = R * g * h = 800 * 10 * 0.6 = 4800 Pa.

We can conclude that the answer is b (4800 Pa).
