Question:
Calculate the pressure at a depth of 2 miles below the surface of the ocean. Explain and justify any assumptions you make. The physical principle that applies to this problem can be described by the equation
where P =þ gz and z is the vertical distance measured upward from any horizontal reference plane. Express your answer in units of (a) atm, (b) psi, (c) Pa, (d) poundal/ft2 , (e) dyn/cm2 .
Solution: given Height = 2 miles = 2*1609.34 = 3218.68 meters
The pressure exerted by the liquid depends upon its density and the height of the liquid.
It is given by the formula P =...
