First of all, pressure is defined as force per unit area. In the case of a lake, the main force acting upon an object in the lake would be gravity, among others. At the surface of the lake, the pressure on the object would be the force that the column of air above exerts on it, divided by the area that the force is acting upon. On the other hand, the pressure on the object at the bottom of a lake would be the force of the column of air PLUS the force of the lake water above, divided by the area that the force is acting upon. Therefore, the pressure must be greater at the bottom of the lake.
no ur brain would explode from to much pressure
The deeper the water, the higher the pressure. This is due to how much weight is on the water. At the top of the ocean, the only thing above the water pushing down on it is air. However, at the bottom of the ocean you have not only the air but the entire body of water above it pushing down. This creates a greater pressure at lower depths.
Pressure in a fluid at a certain depth H is proportional to the density of the fluid. Since Mercury has a much higher density then water it will exert a much larger pressure at the same depth.
The whole east coastline is ocean; from top to bottom.
because the water pressure on the damn is much higher on the bottom of it than the top.
This is because the pressure in a liquid increases with depth. This means that the pressure at the bottom of the dam is more. Hence it is more liable to break out from the dam as more pressure is exerted on the walls. So, the walls are thicker at the bottom.
well lets just say that if went down to the bottom of the ocean you would be crushed but in outer space it would take half the time
bottom current moves very slow.a slow flowing current at the bottom of the ocean means that the ocean is very calm and has no danger to anyone what so ever .Yes it is very much like a flow of water or wind current. In the case of water, it is the water molecules that flow in a pipe. The head or pressure of water is similar to "voltage", the thickness and..
they don't get any because they are at the bottom of the ocean
Well, because then they wouldn't sink to the bottom of the ocean!
No one can go that far down to the ocean because it would be to much pressure. May your head could blow that's how much pressure it would be.
The depth of water in a lake, tank, ocean - or whatever contains it will determine the hydro-static pressure at the bottom. It will also significantly influence the temperature and amount of light and thus the ecosystem at the bottom of the water.
