A sea lab is to be designed to withstand submersion to 150 m, measured from the sea level to the top of the sea lab. Calculate t

he pressure on the top of the sea lab. The density of sea water is 1020 kg/mº and the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s".

Answer:

Explanation:

The hydrostatic pressure is defined as the pressure that is exerted by a fluid at equilibrium at a given point within the fluid, due to the force of gravity, the formula is:

P = ρgh + P₀

Where:

ρ is density (1020kg/m³)

g is gravity (9,8m/s²)

h is depth (150m)

P₀ is the atmspheric pressure (101325 Pa)

Replacing, P = 1'600'725 Pa
