Homework Statement
Assuming g = 10 ms^-2 and the volumetric mass for water is 10^3 kg.m^-3 and the air pressure is 10^5 Pa, the total pressure on a point inside the water that's in equilibrium with a distance of 2m from its free surface is:
A. 0.8 * 10^5
B. 1.002 * 10^5
C. 1.2 * 10^5
D. 1.02 * 10^5
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
What I did was apply: Pnet = Pair + ρ*g*h
Pnet = 10^5 + 10^3 * 10 * 2
Pnet = 10^5 + 10^4 *2What am I doing wrong?
