The deeper the water gets the more water there is. Think of it like bricks, the more you put on the pile, the heavier it gets because there is more weight on the bottom bricks.

Where would the lowest density of sea water be found?

The lowest density of sea water is typically found in the surface waters in tropical regions, where there is high temperature and low salinity. This is because warmer water is less dense than colder water, and water with lower salinity is less dense than water with higher salinity.


Does sea water weigh more at depth than at surface?

Yes, sea water does weigh more at depth than at the surface due to the increased pressure exerted by the water column above it. This pressure causes the water molecules to be more densely packed together, resulting in a higher weight per unit volume.


What is the density below the surface of the sea?

well, keep in mind that the sea is another world, there is a very rare animal/plant called the spectrolium hiter the spectrolium hiter is a amimal which is about 1m long nd when it has died it decomposes in to a plant it is a very animal and lives in the density below the surface of the sea they are very dangerous and are known to have killed sharks.


What is the freezing point of sea water and pure water?

the sea water contains more salt. the pure water do not contain salt. the density of sea water is more than density of pure water. as there is more salt in sea water it is corrosive against the metals like aluminium. the pure water is not corrosive in nature. sea water is harmful for drinking. pure water is good for drinking.


How many feet below sea level equals 10 Bar?

1 Bar represents one atmosphere of air pressure. 10 Bar is approximately equal to 100 Meters of water depth. 1 meter = 3.28083989501 feet. It follows that 100 meters = 328.083989501 feet. Therefore, 10 Bar is approximately equal to the expected pressure at 328.083989501 feet of water depth (not sea level).

How does pressure change the density of sea water?

Pressure increases the density of sea water because it compresses the water molecules closer together, reducing the volume occupied by the same amount of water. As pressure increases with depth in the ocean, the density of sea water also increases. This effect is known as compressibility.


How does the pressure at a certain depth in sea water differ from that at the same depth in river water?

Since liquid pressure is function of density,acceleration due to gravity and depth of liquid level so here density of sea water is greater than that of river water ,so liquid pressure in sea must be more.


What is the density of the water the sea lions live in?

Otters can change their density to either float on the surface of the water, or sink. Therefore, their density can vary.


What will exert more pressure the river water are the same amount of sea water?

The pressure exerted by a fluid is determined by its depth and density. While river water and sea water may be present in the same volume, sea water is denser due to its salt content. Therefore, at the same depth, sea water will exert more pressure than river water.


Can sunken ships ever reach the lowest sea floor or does the weight of the water pass the weight of the steel?

The "weight" of the water is an ambiguous term that could be referring either to the water pressure or the density. Even though the water pressure increases with depth, the density of the water doesn't change much. So anything that sinks on the surface will generally go to the bottom regardless of depth. There are some layered variations in salinity that can cause some density variations, and there might be a few materials whose density is very close to sea water that could reach a region in which they would be suspended.


Why sea water changes according to deepness?

the density does not change, only the pressure


Is a halocline an abrupt rapid change in salinity?

Yes, as changes in salinty affects the density of sea water, another of putting it would be that a Halocline is simply a region below the surface of a body of water where there is a significant increase or decrease in density.


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.


The density of sea water increases as?

the density of sea water increases as salinity increases and temperature decreases
