The height of the column of kerosene in a kerosene lamp is -5 cm. What pressure does the liquid exert on the bottom of the lamp?

Given:

h = 5 centimeters = 0.05 meters;

ro = 800 kg / m3;

g = 10 m / s2.

It is required to determine P (Pascal).

P = ro * g * h = 800 * 10 * 0.05 = 8000 * 0.05 = 400 Pascal.

Answer: the pressure of kerosene at the bottom of the lamp is 400 Pascal.
