An open diving chamber rests on the ocean floor at a water depth of 60 meter. Find the air pressure (gage pressure relative to t
Fofino [41]

Answer:

Gauge Pressure required = 606.258 kPa

Explanation:

Water will not enter the chamber if the pressure of air in it equals that of the water which tries to enter it.

Thus at a depth of 60m we have pressure of water equals

P(z)=P_{0}+\rho _wgh

Now the gauge pressure is given by

P(z)-P_{0}=\rho _wgh

Applying values we get

P(z)-P_{0}=\rho _wgh\\\\P_{gauge}=1.03\times 1000\times 9.81\times 60Pa\\\\P_{gauge}=606258Pascals\\\\P_{gauge}=606.258kPa

The surface air pressure on the planet mars is about 0.007 atm. if you were standing on mars, the surface air pressure would be
Lelu [443]
Surface air pressure is a consequence of the weight of the air acting on its surface. For example, if you are standing on Mars, the pressure around you is what you call the surface air pressure. Thus, that surface air pressure must be 0.007 atm.
