Pressure 1 mile below sea level is approximately 1,525 pounds per square inch (psi). This is due to the weight of the water column above exerting pressure on the depth below.
At sea level, atmospheric pressure is around 101,325 Pascals. For every 10 meters of depth in water, pressure increases by about 1000 Pascals. So, at 500 meters below sea level, the pressure would be approximately 111,325 Pascals.
The Dead Sea is below mean sea level for the earth; therefore, the pressure at the Dead Sea would be greater than at mean sea level and the boiling point of water would be above 100C.
Yes, a barometer can be used below sea level to measure atmospheric pressure. However, the reading may be slightly affected by the pressure of the water above it, which needs to be accounted for to obtain an accurate measurement.
Atmospheric pressure is the weight of the air above the surface of the earth. As elevation increases, there is less air above the location and the pressure is lower. At sea level the column of air above the area is greater.?æ
40 feet below sea level is at a higher elevation than 14 feet below sea level. Elevation is measured by the distance above or below a reference point, such as sea level, so the higher the number below sea level, the lower the elevation.
Below sea level atmospheric pressure increases with depth. Air pressure at sea level is about 14.7 psia. Air pressure below sea level would be slightly higher.
At 1 mile below sea level, the pressure in pounds per square inch (psi) would be approximately 2,227 psi. This represents the increase in pressure due to the weight of the water column above at that depth.
It is greater.
the atmospheric pressure below sea level is highter (novanet)
The air pressure is greatest at sea level.
14.7 psi = sea level. 15.2 psi = 1671 ft below sea level
16bar
No.
Air pressure in a valley below sea level would be higher than at sea level. This is because the weight of the air column above is greater in the valley due to the higher density of air molecules compressed into a smaller volume.
170 psi
Its about a mile under sea.
Assuming you are talking about air pressure, atmospheric pressure is created by the weight of the air resting against the earth. the higher up you go, the less air stacked on top of itself, and the pressure is less, until there is no more air at all (space). The pressure of air at sea level is relatively the same around the world because of all the water flows to the same level. this obviously changes with storms and hurricanes - as those move some of the air out of the way. So if you were to go below sea level, there would be more air on top of you, and the pressure would be higher. In death valley (well below sea level) the atmospheric pressure is much higher than at sea level. To answer the question, No, pressure is not negative below sea level. It is greater than at sea level.
