Description: You are assigned the design of a cylindrical, pressurized water tank for a future colony on Mars, where the acceleration due to gravity is 3.71 meters per second per second. The pressure at the surface of the water will be 150 kPa, and the depth of the water will be 14.2 meters. The pressure of the air in the building outside the tank will be 88.0 kPa.
Question:
Find the net downward force on the tank's flat bottom, of area 2.30 m^2, exerted by the water and air inside the tank and the air outside the tank.
Express your answer numerically in Newtons, to three significant figures.
So I'm new here and I cannot firgure this problem out because my professor did not even talk on this. But i am sure someone here can probably solve this easily. Thanks so much
