What else can I help you with?
What do pirates call the bottom of the sea?
Pirates commonly refer to the bottom of the sea as "Davy Jones' Locker." This phrase is used to symbolize death or the final resting place for sailors and pirates. It is a way of saying someone has gone down to the deep, dark depths of the ocean.
What is the pressure of the bottom of the crust?
It depends where in the ocean you mean! To work this out: At sea level, the Earth's atmosphere exerts a pressure of 1 bar. Then each 10 meter depth of Sea Water also exerts a pressure of 1 bar. So take your ocean bottom depth (in meters) divide it by 10 and add 1. This will give you the pressure at that depth of ocean. alot
As you walk down a mountainside atmospheric pressure will what?
It will increase. Atmospheric pressure decreases with altitude and increases as you move toward sea level. At sea level, atmospheric pressure = 1.0
What is the air pressure at sea level called?
Sea level pressure, sometimes as mean sea level pressure.
Is air pressure another name for barometric pressure?
In short, yes. The commonly-reported "pressure" talked about by meteorologists has been extrapolated down to sea level to eliminate pressure differences caused by altitude (air pressure drops much more quickly with height than it does between even the strongest high and low pressure systems). Air pressure sometimes refers to the pressure observed at a location and not adjusted down to sea level, whereas barometric pressure almost always refers to a sea-level pressure. But maybe this is too much information. A better answer would be "yes."
What has the author V J Monacella written?
V. J. Monacella has written: 'The pressure on the sea bottom due to a moving pressure distribution' -- subject(s): Hydrostatic pressure, Ocean bottom
Where is pressure greater 10 m or 20 m below the surfaces of the sea?
because pressure is high at top not at bottom
How come living things are not crushed by the pressure at the bottom of the sea?
It is usually through being open to the pressure, allowing the internal pressure of the creature to match the exterior pressure.

How deep the sea?
The deepest part of the sea is slightly less than 7 miles deep. You couldn't go down to the bottom. It is too deep even for a Scuba diver. Plus, the water pressure would crush you. And most light disappears 6,000 feet down. update; the sea is approx 31miles deep, more information here: http://www.zadan.nl/pics/sea/ Well, The deepest part of the sea is slightly less than 7 miles deep.

Why can you not stay at the bottom of the sea for too long even with a gas chamber?
I think it is because of water pressure
What is the pressure at sea level and how does it compare to pressure at higher altitudes?
The pressure at sea level is around 1013 millibars. As you go to higher altitudes, the pressure decreases because there is less air above pushing down. This means that the pressure at higher altitudes is lower than at sea level.
Why does pressure increase under the sea?
Pressure increases because as you go further down, more water is above you being pulled down by gravity.

What is the force of air pushing down on us?
The force of air pushing down on us is due to atmospheric pressure. At sea level, this pressure is about 14.7 pounds per square inch (psi). This pressure decreases with increasing altitude.
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.
