Yes there is, just like in air.
No, the fluid pressure increases with depth underwater. The pressure at 10 ft underwater will be greater than the pressure at 5 ft underwater due to the weight of the water above exerting a greater force at greater depths.
Pressure underwater is calculated by multiplying the depth of the water by the density of the fluid and the acceleration due to gravity. The formula is pressure depth x density x gravity. Factors that affect pressure underwater include the depth of the water, the density of the fluid, and the acceleration due to gravity.
The pressure exerted on a diver 10 m underwater is approximately 2 atmospheres or 1.8 times the atmospheric pressure at the surface. This means the pressure is effectively doubled at this depth.
A whale CAN drown- they cannot stay underwater indefinitely. When underwater, they hold their breath. They are REALLY good at holding their breath, and their bodies have adapted to doing that.
Pressure rating for underwater
Our bodies are designed to withstand and adapt to the normal atmospheric pressure we experience every day. The pressure inside our bodies balances the external atmospheric pressure, so we don't feel it. This balance prevents our bodies from being crushed by the atmospheric pressure.
Underwater Universe - 2011 Fatal Pressure 2-3 was released on: USA: 16 March 2011
the bodies of people don't float because of the currents in the water and cause of the weight so the bodies will remain underwater.
We will experience a pressure 2.7 times atmospheric pressure.
Pressure increases underwater because the weight of the water above compresses the water below. The deeper you go, the greater the pressure because there is more water pushing down. This increase in pressure can have physiological effects on the human body, such as affecting breathing and circulation.
Our bodies are made to withstand the atmospheric pressure around us. This pressure is evenly distributed inside and outside our bodies, so we don't get crushed. Additionally, our body tissues contain fluids that help balance the internal pressure.
they have swollen or spongy bodies .they are light
