At a depth of ~4.000m (Wikipedia), the static pressusre would be

P = (rho*g*z) = 10^(3)kg/m^3 * 9.81m/s^2 * 4000m

P ~ 39 240 000 Pa

= 39.24 * 10^6 Pa

Why can't the Titanic be salvaged?

The Titanic is located at a depth of about 12,500 feet, making it extremely challenging and costly to reach and salvage. Additionally, the wreck is deteriorating due to corrosion and other natural processes, which further complicates any salvage efforts. The Titanic wreck is also a protected site under international agreements, limiting any attempts to salvage it.


Can water dent or bend metal?

Under normal circumstances, water cannot dent or bend metal. However, water can cause metal to corrode or rust over time, depending on the type of metal. This corrosion weakens the metal and may eventually lead to deformation or damage.


What causes the water in an artesian well to spout upwards?

The term artesian means that the water is contained in an underground aquifer and/or reservoir. The fact that it is spouting means that it has artesian pressure and is a flowingartesian well. The geology of the site determines the amount of pressure on the reservoir and not all artesian wells have enough, or any pressure to spout. The pressure comes from the weight of ground structures and ground water pressing on and around the underground reservoir.


Does deep sea have high air pressure or high water pressure?

The deep sea has high water pressure due to the weight of the water above it. As you descend deeper, the pressure increases significantly. Conversely, the air pressure at deep sea depths is relatively constant and does not change as dramatically as water pressure.


What is the hydrostatic pressure of freezing water?

When water freezes it increases in volume by %6. That pressure can destroy its' container.
