Water pressure increases by approximately 1 Bar (14.5 psi) for every 10 meter of descent. The exact amount is dependent on local atmospheric pressure and whether it is fresh or salt water (salt water is lower density).
you would also need to do an experiment to find this out.
Water is not incompressible so as you go deeper you will need to correct for that.
(salt water is >higher< density - it is easier for people to float in it due to that)
the weight of the air on the surface of the water compresses the water to 14.7 psi 1 atm At 30 ft (2 atm) the weight of the water compresses everything below it At 60 ft (3 atm) the weight of the water compresses everything below it At 90 ft (4 atm) the weight of the water compresses everything below it and so it continues!

Why is density of water more in deep water?
The density of water increases with depth due to the increase in pressure. As water molecules are packed closer together under high pressure, the density of water increases. Therefore, in deep water where the pressure is higher, the density of water is also higher.
Why does velocity of water change with depth?
The primary change is of pressure, increasing at 1 Bar per 10 metres of depth; but in the oceans, the temperature and salinity also alter in subtle ways.
What is the relationship between water depth and pressure?
Pressure and depth are related in that pressure is proportional to depth. The equation to find pressure at a certain depth is p=dgh, where p is the pressure, d is the density, g is the acceleration of gravity and h is the depth.
What are the factors affect air pressure?
Three factors that affect air pressure are temperature, altitude, and water vapor.
20BAR what is this measurement aquatic?
You question is not clear, but I think you mean to ask how deep in water is a pressure of 20 Bars. A bar is one atmosphere pressure which is about 10 meters of water depth. Since water is incompressible, the relationship is linear. 20 Bars is 200 meters depth.
How does depth affect pressure?
More depth equals more pressure, thus why ears pop when diving in water.
How do depth and temperature affect pressure?
Depth and temperature affect pressure by increasing the pressure as the depth increases. As depth increases, temperature often falls.
How does changing depthe affect water pressure?
it doesnt That is really bad answer
How does water pressure vary with depth?
Water pressure increases as depth increases.
What happens to water pressure as you increase depth?
as water depth increases then so does the water pressure
Does depth affect water resistance?
Resistance of water is probably defined as pressure being applied by water on objects and as it's stated in fluid mechanics books pressure increases as height decreases or depth increases, so simply the answer is "yes".
What is the relationship between water depth an pressure?
The depth of water is directly related to the pressure caused by it. It is caused by gravitational force on the amount of water column in the depth.
What is the water pressure in psi at a depth of 300 feet?
At 300 feet of water depth the pressure is about 130 psi
Can attitude and depth affect fluid pressure?
Yes!!! The altitude and depth cause the fuid to change.
How does groundwater depth and hydrostatic pressure gradient affect bacteria?
i have pressure right now
True or false pressure increases as depth increases?
Yes, pressure does increase as your depth increases in the water
What is the water pressure in depth of 1500m?
you have to do the density of the water times by the weight times by the height
