The motion picture Titanic described the tragedy of the collision of the ocean liner of the same name with an iceberg in the North Atlantic. The ship sank soon after the collision on April 14, 1912, and now rests on the sea floor at a depth of 12193 ft. Recently, the wreck was explored by the research vessel Nautile, which has successfully recovered a variety of items from the debris field surrounding the sunken ship. Calculate the pressure in atmospheres and pounds per square inch exerted on the hull of the Nautile as it explores the sea bed surrounding the Titanic. Pressure = atm.

Concept explainers

Fluid Pressure

The term fluid pressure is coined as, the measurement of the force per unit area of a given surface of a closed container. It is a branch of physics that helps to study the properties of fluid under various conditions of force.

Gauge Pressure

Pressure is the physical force acting per unit area on a body; the applied force is perpendicular to the surface of the object per unit area. The air around us at sea level exerts a pressure (atmospheric pressure) of about 14.7 psi but this doesn’t seem to bother anyone as the bodily fluids are constantly pushing outwards with the same force but if one swims down into the ocean a few feet below the surface one can notice the difference, there is increased pressure on the eardrum, this is due to an increase in hydrostatic pressure.

NASA is designing a mission to explore Titan, the largest moon of Saturn. Titan has numerous hydrocarbon lakes containing a mix of liquid methane and liquid ethane in unknown proportions. As part of the mission, a small submersible vehicle will explore Kraken Mare, the largest of these lakes. Assuming the maximum depth of Kraken Mare is less than 450 meters [m], how much total pressure units of in atmospheres [atm] must the submersible be designed to withstand? Assume the surface pressure on Titan is 146 kilopascals [kPa], the surface temperature is 93 kelvins [K], and the gravity is 1.35 meters per second squared m/s2. The specific gravity of liquid methane is 0.415 and the specific gravity of liquid ethane is 0.546.
Humans evolved in Earth's atmosphere, therefore the pressures interior to the body are relatively close to atmospheric pressure. Because the differences between internal body pressures and atmospheric pressure are so small, individuals have a difficult time gauging the magnitude of atmospheric pressure. Suppose an individual is lying on his stomach with sheets of paper stacked on his back. If each sheet of paper has a mass of 0.00380 kg and is the standard letter size of 8.5 in by 11 in (0.216 m by 0.279 m), how many sheets must be stacked to produce pressure on his back equal to atmospheric pressure (roughly 101325 Pa)? sheets of paper required:
