Question:medium
If a coin at the bottom of a lake appears to be at a depth of $6,m$, then the gauge pressure on the coin in pascal is ($\mu$ of water = $\frac{4}{3}$)
If a coin at the bottom of a lake appears to be at a depth of $6,m$, then the gauge pressure on the coin in pascal is ($\mu$ of water = $\frac{4}{3}$)
Show Hint
Physics Tip: Objects under water always appear raised. Real depth = $\mu \times$ apparent depth.
