Question

when will a diver experience a greater pressure, 100 cm below the surface of water or 200 cm below the surface of water? Justify your answer.

Answer 1

200cm below the water bcaus pressure has direct dependence on depth

Answer 2

Hydrostatic pressure= (density x g x depth)

for density and g = constant

Hydrostatic pressure is directly proportional to depth.

that means greater depth, greater pressure

so P²°° > P¹°°
