If a scuba diver descends too quickly into the sea, the internal pressure on each eardrum remains at atmospheric pressure, while the external pressure increases due to the increased water depth. At sufficient depths, the difference between the external and internal pressures can rupture an eardrum. Eardrums can rupture when the pressure difference is as little as 35 kPa. What is the depth at which this pressure difference could occur? The density of seawater is 1025 kg/m3. 1)sketch (include everything in the system) 2)solution(step by step)

Properties of Fluids

The term fluid represents a type of substance that can easily change its shape under any external pressure/force and can flow. Fluids can acquire any shape in which it is stored and can resist normal stresses but cannot resist shear stress in rest condition. Whenever external shear stress is applied to fluids, it starts to flow. The fluids may be liquid or gas. Example- water, air, etc.
