∙ 16y agoWater pressure increases with depth, so the deepest spot in the ocean is probably the location of the greatest water pressure. The Marianas trench is the deepest place (10,911m) and the pressure is 108.6 MPa. For a comparason, the standard sea-level air pressure is only 101.325 kPa, or about 1000 less.

∙ 15y agoThe deepest part of the ocean, known as the Mariana Trench, would have the most amount of pressure exerted due to the weight of the water above it. At its deepest point, the pressure can reach over 1,000 times the pressure at the surface.

The human body has internal fluids and tissues that balance the pressure exerted by the atmosphere. Our bodies are also designed to adapt to changes in atmospheric pressure to maintain equilibrium. Additionally, we have evolved to withstand atmospheric pressure through anatomical structures like the lungs, which expand and contract to adjust to pressure changes.
The water pressure in the sunlight zone of the ocean typically ranges from 0 to 200 meters (0 to 656 feet) and is considered to be low compared to deeper zones. This zone receives ample sunlight, supporting a diverse range of marine life.
No, the human body will not explode from water pressure when sinking in the ocean. The pressure on the body will increase with depth, but our bodies are able to adjust to it without causing harm. The main risks are related to holding one's breath for too long or getting disoriented underwater.
The Pacific Ocean is the largest ocean. It covers 69,375,000 square miles (155,557,000 km2), or 35% of the earth. The Pacific Ocean makes up almost half of all the oceans; it is almost as big as the other four oceans combined. Its deepest point is the Mariana Trench (Challenger Deep) at 11,033 metres. As the earth spins around, there is a viewpoint from outer space where all you can see is the Pacific Ocean.The Pacific Ocean is between Asia on the west and north and South America on the east. It connects to the Indian Ocean to the west, to the Southern Ocean to the south, and to the Arctic Ocean to the north.The Atlantic Ocean is the second largest ocean. The Atlantic Ocean covers 41,105,000 square miles, or 21% of the earth.The Indian Ocean is the third largest ocean. The Indian Ocean covers 28,900,000 square miles, or 15% of the earth. The Indian Ocean is between Africa on the west and Asia on the north.The Southern Ocean is the fourth largest ocean covering 7, 848, 000 square miles.The Arctic Ocean is the smallest of all the oceans covering 5, 427, 000 square miles.The Pacific Ocean is the biggest ocean in the world. The Artic is the smallest.
The deep sea biome typically has very low precipitation since it is located far below the ocean surface where rain does not reach. Instead, the primary source of water in the deep sea biome comes from currents and upwelling of nutrient-rich waters from the ocean depths.
The pressure exerted on the hull of the sub will get too great and crush it.
At great depths, the pressure exerted by the water is too high.
Yes. The largest feature beneath the ocean is the ocean basin.
Yes, waves can carry momentum. This can be seen in phenomena like the transfer of momentum from ocean waves to surfers or in the pressure exerted by sound waves on a surface.
Water boils at lower temperatures under high pressure, which is the case at the bottom of the ocean where there is a significant amount of pressure exerted by the weight of the water above it. This higher pressure increases the boiling point of water, allowing it to boil even at lower temperatures than at the surface.
One atmosphere is equal to the pressure exerted by a column of water 33 feet (10 meters) high. This means that being 33 feet under the ocean would result in a pressure equivalent to one atmosphere.
Same reason water pressure is the highest at the bottom of the ocean - the amount of stuff above, pushing down.
The same reason pressure builds up when you pile a thousand pounds of dirt onto someone. If you are 100 feet under water you are under many tons of water. Good thing all of that weight isn't directly exerted onto you, but spread out evenly in the ocean.
At sea level,the pressure of the atmosphere pushing down on the ocean surface is reffered to as 1 atmosphere of pressure.An atmosphere is the pressure exerted on a surface at sea level by the column of air above it.As you go below the oceans surface ,the pressure increases because of the force of the water molecules pushing down.
