Question
Crater Lake in Oregon is the deepest lake in the United States, with a maximum depth of 655 m. The density of freshwater is 1.00 ✕ 103 kg/m3.
(a) If the air pressure above the lake, which has a surface altitude of 1800 m, is 8.00 ✕ 104 Pa, what is the absolute pressure at the bottom of the lake?
(b) What is the force of the lake's water on each window of a submarine near the lake bottom if each of its circular windows has an area of 118 cm2? (Enter the magnitude.)
(b) What is the force of the lake's water on each window of a submarine near the lake bottom if each of its circular windows has an area of 118 cm2? (Enter the magnitude.)
