Question

At the beach, atmospheric pressure is 1025 mbar. You dive $15 \mathrm{m}$ down in the ocean and you later climb a hill up to $250 \mathrm{m}$ in elevation. Assume the density of water is about $1000 \mathrm{kg} / \mathrm{m}^{3}$ and the density of air is $1.18 \mathrm{kg} / \mathrm{m}^{3} .$ What pressure do you feel at each place?

Step 1

The atmospheric pressure at the beach is given as 1025 mbar. To convert this to pascals (Pa), we use the conversion factor 1 mbar = 100 Pa. Therefore, the atmospheric pressure at the beach is: 1025 mbar * 100 Pa/mbar = 102500 Pa Show more…
