Water pressure????

Question

how much PSI would a submarine experiance at 600 Ft under water?

Answer 1

2400psi

Answer 2

The formula is P=dgh

P is the fluid pressure;

d is the density of the fluid (density of seawater is ~1025 kg/m3);

g is the acceleration due to gravity (actual value 9.81.. m/s2 and practical value 10 m/s2 );

h is the height of the water column in meters.

600 feet = 182.88 meters

P=(1,025 kg/m3)(10 m/s2)(182.88 meters) = 1,874,520 Pa

(Pascal)

psi=lbf/in=6895 Pa

1,874,520 / 6,895 = 272 psi

Answer 3

Roughly 44 psi per 100 feet of depth

6 x 44 = 278 psi
