Where will you experience greater pressure swimming in the sea or swimming in the pool at the same depth?

if you are swimming at the same depth the pressure will be the same. Depth affects pressure directly proportionally. That is if you swim deeper the pressure will become greater. If you swim up the pressure will become less. The size of the body of water does not affect pressure. Think of it this way, the further down you swim the more your ears hurt. they hurt because of the increase in pressure.

Where wil you experience greater pressure swimming pool or swimming at the sea with the same depth?
At the same depth the pressure is greater at sea because salt water is denser than fresh water.
When swimming under water pressure becomes greater?
Yes. The water pressure exerted on your body is greater than air pressure, and increases with depth.
Where will you experience greater pressure swimming in the sea or in the pool at the same depth?
Salt water is more dense than fresh water. The added density adds pressure, so the pressure will be greater at the same depth in salt water. This is also the cause of the increase of buoyancy in saltwater.
Relationship between liquid pressure and depth?
The greater the depth, the greater the pressure.
Is the pressure at a depth of two feet in a large lake greater than the pressure at the same depth in a swimming pool?
No. The pressure depends on the depth, and on the density of the liquid, which is presumably more or less the same in this case.
What is Dependence of pressure on the depth?
At greater depth, the pressure increases, due to the weight of the liquid above.
Why is the pressure at the bottom of an object in fluid greater than the pressure at the top of the object?
because of the height, as you go down further in depth the greater the pressure. imagine when you at a greater depth the greater amount of fluid you have to endure. the pressure would be the same everywhere at the same depth in fluid but the force on the object would depend on the area of the object.
What causes water pressure in the ocean?
It is the weight of the water pressing down from above. The greater the depth the greater the pressure.
Why does fluid Pressure change with the elevation and depth?
At a greater depth, the weight of all the liquid (or gas) above adds to the pressure.
Where is the pressure greater . in 10 m below the surface of the sea or 20 m below the surface of the sea?
The greater the depth the greater the pressure.
Do you experience more pressure when you swim on the surface of water or under the surface?
Of course when you swim under the surface of the water. The lower you go in the water, the greater the pressure. That's why divers have gauges with them to determine their depth or to know how deep they are in the ocean.
What is the most pressure a diver can experience before getting the bends or decompression sickness?
The deepest depth that can be dived to (on air) and saturate and then surface without getting decompression sickness in general is about 20 feet (6 meters). This is known as the Minimum Bends Depth. Any depth greater than this depth can result in decompression sickness depending on the time underwater.
