Question

Where is the pressure greater,10m or 20m below the surface of the sea? give reason.

Answer 1

Answer:

Pressure is greater 20m below the surface of sea , the pressure increases as you go deeper in it. For every 10m you go deeper pressures increases by 14 psi.

Answer 2

Answer:

pressure at 20 m below the surface of sea is greater.

Explanation:

P = P₀ + ρgh

P = pressure at the point

P₀ = pressure at the surface/atmospheric pressure

ρ = density of medium

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height of the point from the surface.

so as the height increases the pressure increases

∴ pressure at 20 m below the surface of sea is greater.
