An rectangular above-ground swimming pool is 6 m long and 3 m wide. The pool wall has a constant height of 2 m above the ground. Take atmospheric pressure to be 1 atm =10 ^5 Pa and g=10 m/s ^2 . 1) Calculote the welght of the air that fills the pool when the pool is empty. (Take the density of air to be 1.17 kg/m ^3 .) Weight air= 2) The pool is then filled to capacity with fresh water (Density =1000 kg/m ^3 ). What is the welght of the water that fills the pool and what is the pressure on the bottom of the pool due to just the water? Welght water 4) What is the pressure on the bottom of the pool due to the water and the atmosphere above it? P total = 5) What percentage of the total pressure on the bottom of the filled swimming pool is due to just the air above it? Pct air =
