Question

Give reasons why pressure at the bottom of the ocean is much greater than on top

Answer 1

〽Hey User

↪Here is Your Answer..

↪Actually we know that...

↪Pressure at a point is given as

↪P total = p° + rho gh

↪since at surface rho gh = 0
thus total pressure is equal to the atmospheric pressure that is p°

↪but at the depth the total pressure is given by

↪P = p° + rho gh

〽where rho = density, h = depth and g = acc. due to the gravity
