If there were no water at the bottom of the Marianas Trench, the atmospheric pressure would be approximately 101.3 kPa (kilopascals), which is the standard atmospheric pressure at sea level. The depth of the trench, about 10,994 meters, exerts an immense pressure due to the weight of the overlying water, but without the water, only the weight of the air would contribute to the pressure. Thus, the pressure would be comparable to what we experience on the surface of the Earth.

At which ocean feature would the most amount of pressure be exerted?

Water pressure increases with depth, so the deepest spot in the ocean is probably the location of the greatest water pressure. The Marianas trench is the deepest place (10,911m) and the pressure is 108.6 MPa. For a comparason, the standard sea-level air pressure is only 101.325 kPa, or about 1000 less.


Approximately what is the difference in elevation from the bottom of the Marianas Trench to the top of Mt Everest?

The elevation difference is approximately 20,000 meters (65,600 feet), with the bottom of the Marianas Trench being about 10,984 meters (36,037 feet) below sea level and the height of Mount Everest being 8,848 meters (29,029 feet) above sea level.


How deep is marianas trench?

Marianas trench, Marianas trough, or Marianas deep (mâr'ēăn'əz) , elongated depression on the Pacific Ocean floor, 210 mi (338 km) SW of Guam. It is the deepest (35,798.6 ft/10,911.5 m at the Challenger Deep) known depression on the earth's surface. A U.S. navy bathyscape reached its bottom in 1960; a 1995 Japanese probe made what is probably the most accurate measurement of its depth.


Where in the ocean is water pressure the greatest?
