What is the pressure at a depth of 5000 m in the ocean? What is the fractional volume change ĪV/V of seawater at this pressure? What is the density of seawater at this pressure?
Added by Samantha B.
Step 1
Given: Density of water, Ļ = 1030 kg/m^3 Acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s^2 Pressure at the surface, P0 = 1.013 x 10^5 Pa Using the formula: Pressure = Ļ * g * depth Pressure = 1030 * 9.8 * 5000 Pressure = 5.07 x 10^7 Pa Therefore, the pressure at a Show moreā¦

A diver is 5 m below the surface of water. How much pressure does the diver feel? The density of water is 1000 kg/m^3, atmospheric pressure is approximately equal to 100 kPa, and g = 10 m/s^2.
(a) Calculate the absolute pressure at an ocean depth of 1000 $\mathrm{m}$ . Assume the density of seawater is 1030 $\mathrm{kg} / \mathrm{m}^{3}$ and the air above exerts a pressure of 101.3 $\mathrm{kPa}$ . (b) At this depth, what is the buoyant force on a spherical submarine having a diameter of 5.00 $\mathrm{m}$ ?
