Complete question:
A diver is 10 m below the surface of water. Calculate the pressure the fluid exerted on the diver. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2 and the density of the water is 1000 kg/m3. Answer in units of Pa. Show your work.
Answer:
Tthe pressure the fluid exerted on the diver is 1.99 x 10⁵ Pa
Explanation:
Given;
density of water, ρ = 1000 kg/m³
diver's position below the surface of the water, h = 10 m
acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²
Let the atmospheric pressure, P₀ = 101325 Pa
The pressure 10 m below the surface of the water is calculated as;
P = P₀ + ρgh
P = 101325 Pa + (1000 x 9.8 x 10)Pa
P = 199325 Pa
P = 1.99 x 10⁵ Pa.
Therefore, the pressure the fluid exerted on the diver is 1.99 x 10⁵ Pa
Well, it would be fossilization. <- If I spelled it correctly.
