Name the one use of the hydrostatic pressure
Diving
Engineering
Measurement
Does hydrostatic increase or decrease as you go deeper into the water?
It increases
What it means Pa?
Pa= Density
If you are underwater does hydrostatic pressure push only down or in all directions?
All directions
What roll plays hydrostatic pressure in submarines?
Submarines are made to support high hydrostatic pressure as they descend to deeper waters.
True or false: hydrostatic pressure is the same in all depths?
False
What it means G?
G = Acceleration due to gravity
How does the density of a fluid affects hydrostatic pressure?
A denser fluid excerts more pressure at the same temperature depth
How divers use hydrostatic pressure?
They monitor the depth to avoid the decompression due to the fast changes of pressure
What force causes hydrostatic pressure in liquids?
