Most towns use a water tower to store water and provide pressure in the pipes that deliver water to customers. The figure below shows a spherical water tank that holds 5.10 x 105 kg of water when full. Note that the tank is vented to the atmosphere at the top and that the pipe delivering water to customer Smith is a height h = 7.00 m above the level of the pipe delivering water to customer Jones. Determine the gauge pressure of the water at the faucet of each house when the tank if full. Vent Smith house 18.0 m Jones house Faucet Faucet- (a) Jones house Pa (b) Smith house Pa

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.
