Question

The pressure acting on a diver in a take is 5 bar. The height of water column above him is nearly

A) 9 m B) 30 m C) 40 m D) 50 m E) 60 m

Answer 1

Diver's dive depth 50 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

p = 5 bar = 5·10⁵ Pa - Pressure

ρ = 1000 kg/m³ - Water density

g = 10 m/s²

______________

H - ? Diver's dive depth

p = ρ·g·H

H = p/ ( ρ·g)

H = 5·10⁵ / (1000·10) = 50 m
