00:01 Here in this question we are given the height that is equal to 76 meter we are given the density density which is represented by d that is equal to 13 ,600 km per meter cube and we are given the value of g that is acceleration due to gravity which is 9 .8 meter per second square so from here we have to find out the value of pressure we know that pressure is equal to density multiply by the g multiply by the h so from here we can plug into the value p from here will be equals to 13600 multiplied by the 9 .8 multiply by the h that is equal to 76 so after simplifying all this down we get the value of pressure that will be equals 1 0129 280 kilogram per meter per second square or we can write it as that pressure will become equal to 10 .1 multiply by the 10 -rest -to -the -power -6 bicycles...
