To solve the problem of calculating the water pressure and the thrust at the bottom of a tank, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Calculate the Pressure at the Bottom of the Tank The formula for pressure (P) at a certain depth in a fluid is given by: \[ P = \rho \cdot g \cdot h \] where: - \( \rho \) = density of the fluid (water in this case) = \( 1000 \, \text{kg/m}^3 \) - \( g \) = acceleration due to gravity = \( 9.8 \, \text{m/s}^2 \) ...
