Why is it important to compress to the approeriate depth during CPR?

Too far and you may severely damage bones and organs, not enough and the compressions may not be effective.
(The breaking of some ribs during CPR is somewhat expected, but you don't want to crush organs or anything like that.)

How far to you compress to allow chest to recoil?
Compression depth does not affect the recoil ability of the chest; compress 1/2 to 1 inch for infant, 1 to 1 1/2 inches child and 2 inches for an adult.
What is the depth of the chest child compression?
The depth of chest compressions in child CPR is 1 to 1 1/2 inches. A child is about 1 to 8 years old.

How deep do you compress the chest for an adult when performing chest compressions?
Chest compressions on adults should be 1 1/2 to 2 inches deep.
Does the pressure in a liquid depend solely on its depth?
No. Density and Depth Liquid pressure = weight density x depth As long as the liquid is incompressible (which is a good approximation), Yes. During WWII it was necessary to compress various high explosives to use as detonators. A system was devised to lower rubber bags of high explosive into deep ocean trenches. The explosive was as hard as glass and could be cut into suitable pieces easily. Bell Ross makes a "Hydromax" wrist watch with a pressure depth rating of 11,110 Meters, which is the deepest depth in the ocean.
When do you use a tele lens?
Usually when you cannot get close enough to create a large enough image with a shorter lens, or wish to compress the depth of field.
