How many feet in fresh water equals one atmosphere?
33 feet
How many atmospheres equal 100 meters?
For each 33 feet of depth in water the pressure increases approximately 1 atmosphere. So 100 meters is approximately 330 ft divide by 33 equals 10 atmosphere.
How many square feet is 33 feet by 15 feet?
33 feet multiplied by 15 feet is equal to 495 square feet.
How many yards are there in 33 feet?
There are 3 feet in one yard. Therefore, 33 yards is equal to 33 x 3 = 99 feet.
How much is 33 feet in meters?
33 feet = 10.06 metres
What affects water pressure?
For any body of water near sea level, the pressure increases by 1 ATM per 33 feet below the surface.
What is the maximum height that water you can suck water up a pipe?
Depends on atmospheric pressure. At 1 ATM this is 10.3m (33 feet)
What is the water pressure at 2000 ft?
every 33 feet equals 1 atmosphere so about 60 atmospheres
How many ounces of gas pressure is 6 of water column?
33 feet equals 1 atmosphere or 14.7 psi.
What pressure in pounds per square inch is equal to a depth of 120 millimetres of water?
Assuming the experiment is conducted at 1 atmosphere, sea level, then the ambient pressure is 14.7lbs/square inch. In water the pressure increases linearly by 1 atmosphere for every 33 feet of depth. So the pressure 120mm under water is (1 +(120 mm/33 feet)) x 14.7 lbs/square inch. About 15 PSI.
What is the equivalent depth of one atmosphere in the ocean equal to in fresh water and sea water?
33 feet in sea water, 34 feet in fresh water
Can someone explain how to do this At A 33-foot Depth Underwater The Pressure Is 29.55 Pounds Per Square Inch (psi). At A Depth Of 66 Feet The Pressure Reaches 44.4 Psi. At What Rate Is The Pressure I?
The rate is (44.4 - 29.55) / 33 which is 14.85 psi/33 feet = 0.45 psi/ft
How is atmospheric pressure similar to pressure felt by scuba divers?
The method is the same, but the formula differs depending on whether you want it in meters or feet. The easy method in feet is to add .3 atmospheres (ata) every 10 feet (or every 3 meters) and then add a surface atmosphere, so 20 feet would be: [(.3 x 2) +1] = 1.6 ata The simple formula for feet is: (Depth + 33)/33 For meters it is: (Depth +10)/10
What is the water pressure in psi at a depth of 300 feet?
At 300 feet of water depth the pressure is about 130 psi
What is the water pressure at 13000 feet under water?
The pressure is 394 atm.
How many feet in fresh water equals one atmosphere?
33 feet
Why is air that is pressurized needed in scuba diving?
The pressure on a diver's body increases quickly with depth. At the surface we're all breathing air at 14.7 PSIg, or 1 "Atmosphere" (atm). Each 33 feet of sea water results in another 1 atm of pressure. This means, for example, that a diver's body is under a total pressure of 3 atmospheres at 66 feet of sea water (one of air, two of water). The human respiratory system is designed to operate at normal atmospheric pressure of 14.7 pounds per square inch. If we descend to 33 feet, the water pressure exerts a force of nearly 30 pounds per square inch on our bodies. Our bodies are incapable of breathing against that much pressure. A scuba pressure regulator is designed to deliver air at the same pressure as the surrounding water, allowing us to breathe.
