How does bathyscaphe work?
The bathyscaphe works by turning on its engine and it dives into the water and a lot of air is trapped inside it so it swims to the bottom of the sea/ocean. The pressure at the bottom of the sea/ocean is enough to squish a human.
The absolute pressure in the ocean at 53 feet is?
53 feet = 16.154 4 meterthe water pressure at 16.154 4 meters = 1.61544 bars + 1 bar of atmospheric pressure makes the absolute pressure = 2.62 bars.
How are air pressure and water pressure similar?
Atmospheric pressure is a unit of measument, and measure the pressure of the air. Much like the deeper you go in the ocean the higher the pressure is. You are actually on the bottom of an ocean of air, the higher up the less atmospheric pressure and eventually there is non when you reach outer space.
Give three physical characteristics of the ocean that affect where marine organisms can live?
Temperature, pressure and dissolved oxygen.
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.
Where in the ocean is water pressure the greatest?
At the bottom of the Mariana Trench (Pacific Ocean), where water pressure is about eight tons per square inch.

What is the relationship between ocean depth and pressure?
The pressure (force per cm2) at a particular depth is the weight of water above that square centimetre.
