The height of a water column equivalent to a pressure of 0.15 MPa is (A) 15.3 m (B) 25.3 m (C) 35.3 m (D) 45.3 m

Description : The height of a water column equivalent to a pressure of 0.15 MPa is (A) 15.3 m (B) 25.3 m (C) 35.3 m (D) 45.3 m

Last Answer : The height of a water column equivalent to a pressure of 0.15 MPa can be calculated using the hydrostatic equation: Pressure (P) = Density of water (rho) * Acceleration due to gravity (g) * Height (h) ... s^2) = 0.15 m Therefore, the height of the water column would be approximately 0.15 meters.
