When a Diver is 8 meters under the sea, the pressure gauge in the air tube indicates 60 kPa. At what depth will the gauge pressure show 0 kPa?

Step 1
01 * 10^5 Pa + (1030 kg/m^3 * 9.8 m/s^2 * 8 m) absolute pressure = 1.82 * 10^5 Pa Show more…

The pressure gauge on an air tank shows $75 \mathrm{kPa}$ when the diver is $10 \mathrm{m}$ down in the ocean. At what depth will the gauge pressure be zero? What does that mean?

When a person swims underwater, the pressure in his or her ears varies directly with the depth at which he or she is swimming. Find the pressure at 60 feet.
