engineers have developed a bathyscaph that can reach ocean depths of 7.0 mi. (a) what is the absolute pressure at that depth? (b) if the inside of the vessel is maintained at atmospheric pressure, what is the net force on a porthole of diameter 15 cm?

Respuesta :

The absolute pressure is 1.1256 x 10⁸ Pa . the net force on a porthole of diameter 15 cm is 1.987 x10⁶ N.

What is absolute pressure?

Absolute pressure is defined as the pressure of a complete vacuum or the presence of no matter inside a place.

Given depth = 7.0 mile

Distance = 15 cm = 0.15 m

We known that

1 mile =  1.6 km = 1600m

Absolute Pressure = Gauge pressure + Atmospheric Pressure.

= 1.013 x10⁵ N/m² + Density of sea water x g x depth

= 1.013 x10⁵ + ( 1023.6 x 9.81 x 7x1.6x1000)

= 1.1256x10⁸ Pa

Net force = Density of sea water x g x depth x Area of section

Net force = (1.1256 x 10⁸ - 1.013x10⁵) x 3.14 x (15/100)²/⁴

Net force = 1.987 x10⁶ N

Thus, the absolute pressure is 1.1256 x 10⁸ Pa . the net force on a porthole of diameter 15 cm is 1.987 x10⁶ N.
