pearl divers from Ceylon can go down to a depth of 17 fathoms without breathing gear. convert this depth to meters(1 fathom=6 feet. What is the the weight density for water and how much water pressure is on them at that depth.
Homework Answers
1 fathom=6 feet
So, 17 fathoms = 17*6 ft = 102 ft
Now, 1 ft = 0.3048 m
So, 17 fathoms = 102*0.3048 m = 31.1 m (answer)
Density of water = 1000 kg/m^3 (ans)
Pressure = density*g*h
= 1000*9.8*31.1
= 304,679 Pa (ans)

1. A submarine dives from the surface of the ocean to a depth of 3500 feet ( 1foot= 0.305 meters) . a) what pressure increase does the submarine experience? b) at this depth of 3500 feet, what is the force (in units of N) on the hatch which has an area of 0.6 m2 ?

A fisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically without any horizontal motion, owing to waves on the surface of the water. It takes a time of 2.90s for the boat to travel from its highest point to its lowest, a total distance of 0.630m . The fisherman sees that the wave crests are spaced a horizontal distance of 5.60m apart. Part A How much is the wavelength? express your answers in 3 sig. fig. Part B...
