What does 5 ATM mean on a wrist watch?
"ATM" stands for ATMospheres and the number before it, refers to the number of atmospheres of pressure the watch will withstand before leaking. At sea level we are all subjected to one atmosphere of pressure, because we have one atmosphere of air above us pressing down. For every 33 feet (10 metres) underwater you go, the pressure increases by 1 atmosphere. Therefore, at 33 feet underwater the pressure is 2 atmospheres (2 ATM), at 66 feet underwater the pressure is 3 atmospheres (3 ATM), etc. So 5 ATM is equivalent to 132 feet (40 metres) underwater. In conclusion, the ATM rating of a watch is the number of atmospheres of pressure the watch will withstand before breaking/leaking. To convert ATM 's into the depth rating in metres just subtract 1 and multiply by 10. eg: 5 ATM = (5 - 1)*10 = 40 metres.
What are three ways scientists can learn about the deep ocean?
With submersibles, sonar, magnetometers, and satellites.
What is one atmosphere?
A pressure measurement, in comparison to atmospheric pressure on Earth, at sea level, near sea level, at standard temperature, usually expressing an absolute pressure (but does not have to be). 1 atmosphere absolute = 1.01325 bar absolute 1 atmosphere absolute = 101,325 pascal absolute 1 atmosphere absolute = 14.69595 psi absolute

deep sea canyons
What is another word for underwater creature?
Another word for an underwater creature is a deep sea creature. Deep sea creatures include the cornuta, the giant isopod and the humpback anglerfish.
Why air pressure is lower than water pressure?
Water Pressure is higher because of it's molecular weight as compared to air.
