Problem 5: The water on the reservoir side of a dam has a depth of 220 meters (this would be typicalof Hoover Dam in the weste rn U.S.). The atmospheric pressure is 100 kPa and the density of the watercan be taken to be 1000 kg/m3. Find the following:A function that gives the absolute pressure in the water in the reservoir as function of thea.depth, y, below the surface.b.
