प्रश्न
The density of water at 4°C is supposed to be 1000 kg m–3. Is it same at sea level and at high altitude?

उत्तर
At sea level, the pressure is around 1 atmosphere and at high altitude, the density of air reduces.
Pressure of liquid,
P = hρg,
where ρ = density of fluid
The above equation shows that pressure depends on density. Therefore at 4oC, the density of water will be less at high altitude, compared to the density at sea level.
