A very long pipe is capped at one end with a semipermeable membrane. How deep (in meters) must the pipe be immersed into the sea for fresh water to begin to pass through the membrane? Assume the water to be at 20°C, and treat it as a 0.70 M NaCl solution. The density of seawater is 1.03 g/cm3, and the acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s2.
