What is the formula is used to calculate the pressure in a liquid?

The formula relating the pressure in a liquid to the depth of the liquid is P = P0 + dgh. P is the pressure, P0 is atmospheric pressure, d is the density of the fluid, g is the acceleration of gravity, and h is height below the surface of the water.

What is the atmospheric pressure if the temperature is at 0c the velocity of sound is 331.0ms density of air is 1.295kg and what formula is used?

Sorry, the atmospheric pressure has really nothing to do with the speed of sound at 0c, but he temperature is very important Scroll down to related links and read the short article "Speed of sound - temperature matters, not air pressure". The air pressure and the air density are proportional to each other at the same temperature.

How does elevation affect velocity of sound?

Formula for speed of sound c = 331 + 0.6 × ϑϑ = temperature in degrees celsius.At ϑ = 20°C we get a speed of sound c = 331 + 0.6 × 20 = 343 m/s.1 °C change of temperature is equal to 60 cm/s change of speed of sound.The speed of sound changes clearly with temperature, a little bit with humidity - but not with air pressure (atmospheric pressure).The words "sound pressure at sea level" are incorrect and misleading in the case of "speed of sound". The temperature indication, however, is absolutely necessary.The ratio p_ / ρ is always constant on a high mountain, and even at "sea level". The static atmospheric pressure p_ and the density of air ρ go always together. The ratio stays constant.When calculating the speed of sound forget the atmospheric pressure, but look accurately at the very important temperature. The speed of sound varies with altitude (height or elevation) only because of the changing temperature there!Look at the link: "Speed of Sound in Air and the effective Temperature".

What is the relationship between pressure and distance in the ocean?

Water pressure can be calculated easily if you know the simple steps on how to calculate water pressure. Water pressure is also called as hydrostatic pressure and is calculated for the non-moving fluid. It can be calculated for any amount of large water body. You can easily calculate water pressure using simple equation.Formula for calculating water pressure:P = a + l × g × hIn the above formula,"P" is the water pressure"a" is the atmospheric pressure at the surface of water"l" is the density of water"g" is the gravitational acceleration"h" is the depth of waterTo calculate water pressure you need to know the depth of water, atmospheric pressure at the surface of water, density of water and gravitational acceleration.We generally use the standard values of gravitational acceleration (g) and density of water (l). Standard value of density of water is 1000 kg/m3 and standard value of earth's gravitational acceleration is 9.8 m/s2.Determine the depth at which you want to calculate the water pressure, substitute it in the place of "h" in the above formula.Determine the pressure at the surface of water. You need to use the barometer for measuring the pressure of water, substitute this in the place of "a" in the above formula. The pressure at the surface of water should be expressed in kg/ms2. You can use help of online sources to convert into desired units.Substitute all the measured values in the above equation and calculate the pressure of water.Multiply the result obtained by 0.014. This will convert the value in pounds per square inch.This is the calculated water pressure or hydrostatic pressure.Calculating water pressure in a pipe:Water pressure in a pipe is basically weight of the water above the point where you want to calculate the water pressure. To calculate water pressure within a pipe you need to know the vertical difference in the water level between the pipe and the water surface. This distance can be either vertical distance or horizontal distance, doesn't matter.Steps for calculating water pressure within a pipe:Step 1: Locate the nearest surface of water from where the water reaches your source. This surface can be anything from a water tower, water tank, lake or a sea.Step 2: Calculate the elevation of this water surface from your source. You need proper measuring instruments for this. If the water surface is a water tank, then you need to include the height of the tower in your calculation.Step 3: Find out the measurement of the elevation where your water source is located or the distance of the outlet of the pipe from the ground level.Step 4: If this pipe is located underground then subtract the distance of the pipe from the ground surface.Step 5: Finally subtract the measurement of the elevation of your pipe from the measured elevation of the water surface.Step 6: You will get the value of water pressure in feet head if you have measured the distances in feet or meter head if you have measured the distances in meter. This value needs to be converted into appropriate units of pressure.Step 7: Using online resources convert the above measured values into appropriate units of pressure by entering the values you calculated into the text boxes and clicking on the calculate button. As most of the online converters convert pounds square inches to the units of pressure, multiply the value in feet head by 0.433 and meter head in 1.4202 to convert them into PSI units.
