Question

A container is filled to a depth of 3.5 m with water. On top of the water floats a layer of oil with specific gravity 0.75. If the absolute pressure at the bottom of the container is 2.1 x 106 Pa, what is the height of the oil layer ? ( Density of water is 1000 kg/m3).

Name: a container is filled to a depth of 35 m with water on top of the water floats a layer of oil with specific gravity 075 if the absolute pressure at the bottom of the container is 21 x 106 pa 63614
