To find the pressure at the bottom of a water tank that is 20 meters deep, given that the barometer reads 10 meters at the surface, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Problem We have a water tank that is 20 meters deep. The barometer reading at the surface indicates that the atmospheric pressure is equivalent to a 10-meter column of water. ### Step 2: Identify the Variables - Depth of the water tank (h) = 20 m - Height of the water column indicated by the barometer (H) = 10 m ...
