"Determine the pressure exerted on a submarine at 300m below the free surface of the sea Assume the barometric pressure to be 101 kPa and density of sea water to be 1030 kglm' ."
Added by Megan W.
Step 1
This is given by the formula P = Ļgh, where Ļ is the density of the fluid (sea water in this case), g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height of the fluid column above the point in question (the depth of the submarine). Substituting the given Show moreā¦

Determine the pressure exerted on a diver at 15 m below the free surface of the sea. Assume a barometric pressure of 101 kPa and a specific gravity of 1.03 for seawater.

A submarine is cruising 200 m below the ocean's surface. Determine the pressure on the submarine's surface if atmospheric pressure is 101 kPa and the density of seawater is 1030 kg/mĀ³, g = 9.8 m/sĀ².
(a) Calculate the absolute pressure at an ocean depth of 1000 $\mathrm{m}$ . Assume the density of seawater is 1024 $\mathrm{kg} / \mathrm{m}^{3}$ and the air above exerts a pressure of 101.3 $\mathrm{kPa}$ . (b) At this depth, what force must the frame around a circular submarine porthole having a diameter of 30.0 $\mathrm{cm}$ exert to counterbalance the force exerted by the water?
