An open tank consists of 3 immiscible liquids, in which the water is at the height of 200 cm, above which a crude oil of specific gravity of 0.85 is filled up to a height of 1800 mm, above which a coconut oil of specific gravity of 0.86 is filled for about 5 m. Find (i) the intensity of pressure in kPa at the interface between coconut oil & crude oil (ii) the intensity of pressure in MPa at the interface between crude oil & water (iii) the intensity of pressure in N/cm2 at the bottom of the tank.

An open tank consists of 3 immiscible liquids, in which the water is at the height of 200 cm, above
which a crude oil of specific gravity of 0.85 is filled up to a height of 1800 mm, above which a
coconut oil of specific gravity of 0.86 is filled for about 5 m.
Find (i) the intensity of pressure in kPa at the interface between coconut oil & crude oil
(ii) the intensity of pressure in MPa at the interface between crude oil & water
(iii) the intensity of pressure in N/cm2 at the bottom of the tank.
Solution:
The intensity of pressure at the interface between coconut oil & crude oil (unit in kPa) :
The intensity of pressure at the interface between crude oil & water (unit in MPa) =
The intensity of pressure at the bottom of the tank (Unit in N/cm²),
