Emperor penguins dive deeper into sea water than any other bird. An Emperor penguin weighing 245 newtons [N] can dive to a maximum depth of 450 feet [ft] below the surface of the sea water. The volume of an Emperor penguin can be modeled as a cylinder with a diameter of 0.25 meters [m] and a height of 1.1 meters [m]. The specific gravity of sea water is 1.027. Find the total pressure acting on the penguin at the maximum depth in units of atmospheres [atm].
