Question 72

Which equation correctly expresses the depth h h\,h beneath the surface of a liquid in terms of the hydrostatic pressure p p\,p at that depth, the density of the liquid ρ\rhoρ, and the gravitational field strength ggg?

A

h=pρgh = \frac{p}{\rho g}h=ρgp​

B

h=pρgh = p \rho gh=pρg

C

h=ρgph = \frac{\rho g}{p}h=pρg​

D

h=pρgh = \frac{p \rho}{g}h=gpρ​
