A diver in a rigid spacesuit can dive to a depth of 250 m, and an experienced diver – to 20 m. Determine the water pressure in the sea at these depths.

diver
h = 250 meters
g = 10 N / kg
ρ = 1030 kg / m cubed
R – ?
Decision:
by the formula p = h * g * ρ
p = 250 m * 10 N / kg * 1030 kg / m cubed = 2500 * 1030 = 2575000 Pa = 2575 * 10 in the power of 3 Pa
p = 2,575,000 Pa = 2,575 kPa

diver
h = 20 meters
g = 10 N / kg
ρ = 1030 kg / m cubed
R – ?
Decision:
p = h * g * ρ
p = 2 0 m * 10 N / kg * 1030 kg / m cubed = 200 * 1030 Pa = 206 000 Pa = 206 * 10 to the power of 3 Pa
p = 206,000 Pa = 206 kPa
answer: at h = 250 m, p = 2575000 Pa = 2 575 k Pa
at h = 20 m, p = 206 000 Pa = 206 k Pa
