calculate the pressure by sea water when diving to a depth of 100m.what is the pressure acting on the diver?​

Respuesta :

Answer:

P = 981000 [Pa] or 98.1 [kPa]

Explanation:

To calculate the pressure at that depth we can use the following expression that defines the static pressure of a fluid as a function of the density and depth of the body with respect to the surface of the liquid.

[tex]P=Ro*g*h[/tex]

where:

P = pressure [Pa]

Ro = density of the water = 1000 [kg/m³]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

h = depth = 100 [m]

[tex]P = 1000*9.81*100\\P = 981000 [Pa][/tex]
