Question

In 2010, the U.S. Center for Coastal and Ocean Mapping measured the deepest known point of the Earth's oceans in the Mariana Trench. It was 10994 m deep, more than a mile taller than Mt. Everest. Compute the gauge pressure at that depth, assuming the density of seawater is a constant 1.025 x 10^3 kg/m^3. Give your answer in kPa.

Step 1

025 \times 10^3 \, \text{kg/m}^3 \) (density of seawater) \( g = 9.8 \, \text{m/s}^2 \) (acceleration due to gravity) \( h = 10,994 \, \text{m} \) (depth) Show more…
