(Oceanography) The pressure, P, exerted on an underwater object can be determined by this
formula:
ρ is the density of water, which is
g is the acceleration caused by Earth’s gravity, which is
h is the object’s depth in the water in feet.
a. Determine the units of P by calculating the units resulting from the right side of the formula.
Check that your answer corresponds to the units for pressure listed in Table 1.1.
b. Determine the pressure on a submarine operating at a depth of 2500 feet.
