Pressure & Hydrostatic Pressure

In summary, the speaker is seeking help with their homework, specifically with exercises 11, 12, and 13. They have attempted to use basic formulas for pressure and hydrostatic pressure, but have not been successful. They apologize for not posting their attempts, but would like someone to explain in depth how to solve exercises 12 and 13. They also mention attempting to use the formula P = H ⋅ ρ ⋅ g for exercise 11 and V = (m ⋅ S) : ρ (of the stone) for exercise 13, but it did not help.

Hello, I would like somebody to help me with few simple questions for my homework. I did try to solve them but I failed at few of them. Here are the two papers I need to help with. I need help with the highlighted excerises. I tried some basic formulas for pressure and hyrdostatic pressure but as I said I failed a lot. May you guys please explain how can I achieve the result on these exercises. On the page with exercises 11) 12) and 13) Could you please explain i depth the 12 and 13? If you can't read the exercise just skip it. I would like to thank you in advance.

2. Homework Equations

Well I tried to work with
P = H ⋅ ρ ⋅ g
also I tried for the stone 13)
V = (m ⋅ S) : ρ (of the stone)

The Attempt at a Solution


I would like to apologise for not posting my attempts as it is just mess on my paper. I tried using these formulas but did not help. I was only given these. Cant really figure out much.

Please post an attempt by typing it in. Use LaTeX if you can, or just use the superscript, subscript and special character (Σ) buttons above.
 

Related to Pressure & Hydrostatic Pressure

What is pressure?

Pressure is defined as the force applied per unit area. In other words, it is the amount of force exerted on a surface divided by the area of that surface.

How is pressure measured?

Pressure is typically measured using a device called a manometer. This instrument measures the difference in height of a liquid column due to the pressure difference between two points.

What is hydrostatic pressure?

Hydrostatic pressure is the pressure exerted by a fluid at rest due to the weight of the fluid above it. It is also known as fluid pressure or liquid pressure.

What factors affect hydrostatic pressure?

The main factors that affect hydrostatic pressure are the density of the fluid, the depth of the fluid, and the acceleration due to gravity. The greater the density and depth of the fluid, the higher the hydrostatic pressure.

Why is hydrostatic pressure important?

Hydrostatic pressure is important in many scientific and engineering applications. It helps to explain the behavior of fluids in containers, the buoyancy of objects in liquids, and the functioning of hydraulic systems. It is also a crucial factor in understanding atmospheric pressure and its effects on weather patterns.
