To calculate the pressure due to a water column of height 100 m, we can use the formula for pressure in a fluid column: \[ P = \rho \cdot g \cdot h \] Where: - \( P \) is the pressure at the bottom of the column (in Pascals or Newtons per square meter). - \( \rho \) is the density of the fluid (in kg/m³). - \( g \) is the acceleration due to gravity (in m/s²). ...
