Question

There are two cans on a table. The same pressure is exerted by each of the weights of the cans but the cans do not have contents with the same densities. The radius of the first can is .025m and the radius of the second can is .035. The density, Q, of can 1 is 850 kg/m^3 and the density, Q, of can two is 1010 kg/m^3 and the height h1 of can 1 is .16m 

1) Write an expression for the pressure p1 exerted on the table by can 1 in terms of density height and gravity.

2) write and expression for p2 exerted on the table by can 2 in terms of density height and gravity

3) Write an expression for h2 in terms of the Q1 Q2 and H1 

4) solve for h2 in meters
