Concept explainers

Fluid Pressure

The term fluid pressure is coined as, the measurement of the force per unit area of a given surface of a closed container. It is a branch of physics that helps to study the properties of fluid under various conditions of force.

Gauge Pressure

Pressure is the physical force acting per unit area on a body; the applied force is perpendicular to the surface of the object per unit area. The air around us at sea level exerts a pressure (atmospheric pressure) of about 14.7 psi but this doesn’t seem to bother anyone as the bodily fluids are constantly pushing outwards with the same force but if one swims down into the ocean a few feet below the surface one can notice the difference, there is increased pressure on the eardrum, this is due to an increase in hydrostatic pressure.

Question

**A Legendary Dutch Boy's Tale: A Physics Perspective**

In this scenario, a legendary Dutch boy saves Holland by plugging a hole in a dike with his finger, having a diameter of 1.10 cm.

**(a)** If the hole was 1.80 m below the surface of the North Sea (with a density of 1030 kg/m³), what was the force exerted on his finger?

- **Incorrect Answer Attempt:** 3 N
- **Feedback:** Your response differs from the correct answer by more than 10%. Double-check your calculations.
