QUESTION:
Problem 21P
Determine the pressure exerted on a diver at 20 m below the free surface of the sea. Assume a barometric pressure of 101 kPa and a specific gravity of 1.03 for seawater.
ANSWER:
Step 1:
To determine the pressure exerted on a diver at 20 m below the free surface of the sea.
The depth below the surface of the sea h = 20 m
Barometric pressure p0 = 101 kPa
Specific gravity of seawater SGSW = 1.03
