What happens to water pressure as you increase depth?
as water depth increases then so does the water pressure
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.
Type of entry used for unknown depth in cloudy water?
You use a step in entry or a safety entry.
How does the density of water change with depth?
the density of sea increases with 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
Why will there be a great error if the water displacement method is used to to determine the volume of rice grains?
because the rice grains will absorb some of the water, which will then not be measured on the depth scale.
What is echo sounder?
Is an instrument used to determine the depth of water by measuring the time interval between the emission of a sound signal and the return of its echo from the bottom.
How do you determine the Volume of water based on area?
You cannot. Area is a 2-dimentional concept and volume is 3-dimensional. Unless you know the depth (or average depth) you cannot determine the volume.
What is a bathometer?
A bathometer is a device used for measuring the depth of water, particularly the depth of ocean water.
What are the units used when measuring the depth of water?
Depth of Water Measurement.Water is measured by many strategies such as a sounding line, depth guages (based on pressure) and by sonar messurement. Before the moden age, sailors would throw lead weighted lines into the water. These were marked off in six foot increment (fathoms) and would call out the depth, or int he old English phrase - sound off, hence the term sounding the depth.Submarines brought a new requirement for depth measurement, the need to know how deep the boat was in the water. Since water has weight, there is a direct correllation to the depth of the water and the pressure outside the submarine. Most depth guages are calibated in feet or meters of seawater as most submarines operate in salt water, which is heavier than fresh (non-salty) water.Modern electronics has now allowed sophisticated measuring devices to bounce waves off the bottom and determine exaclty the depth of water that a boat is in. This is now used on many pleasure and fishing boats as a necessary navigation aid.Satellite detection of water depth is now used to determine changes in fresh water reserves on continents and to determine the changes in climates and geography.
What does the depth of the water determine?
The depth of water in a lake, tank, ocean - or whatever contains it will determine the hydro-static pressure at the bottom. It will also significantly influence the temperature and amount of light and thus the ecosystem at the bottom of the water.

Which information is most important when passing near a lighthouse?
Depth of water
What is used to measure water?
in depth, feet is used, but in amount, gallons is used
How is water depth measured?
The depth in the ocean is measured by sounding using echo-sounders. Nowadays satellites are also used for this purpose.
What must be done to determine which mining method should be used?
A geologic survey to determine depth, amounts, and direction of ore bearing minerals.
Can salt water is used to determine the boiling point of water?
No, salt water cannot be used to accurately determine the boiling point of ultrapure water. Salt water boils at a slightly higher temperature than pure water; salt water can be used to determine the boiling point of salt water.
