A 1-centimeter diameter cylindrical tube is open at the top. Oil is poured into the container followed by water. If the oil has a height of 2 cm and the water has a height of 3 cm, what is the absolute pressure at the bottom of the container in Pascal? The density of water is 1000 kg/m^3 while oil is 820 kg/m^3
