Chapter 3, Problem 12P
In the deep ocean the compressibility of seawater is significant in its effect on ρ and p. If E =2.07 × 109 Pa, find the percentage change in the density and pressure at a depth of 10,000 metres as compared to the values obtained at the same depth under the incompressible assumption. Let ρo = 1020 kg/m3 and the absolute pressure po = 101.3 kPa

a submarine is sent to a certain depth in the atlantic ocean to investigate lifeforms present in the layer. the density of seawater measured in the deep layer is 1040 kg/m^3. the coefficient of compressibility of water in the deep layer is 2.4 GPa. calculate the absolute pressure at this layer given that the oceans surface density is 1035 kg/m3 and the absolute pressure is P=101.3 kpa
A force, P, is applied to a piston with a mass of 15 kg and a diameter of 43 cm that rests on top of a cylinder
containing water as shown. (The piston is free to move in the cylinder, but is sealed so no water can escape.) An
open U-tube manometer is connected to the cylinder as shown. Determine the applied force, P in kN, if h1 = 68 mm
and h = 100 mm. You can use the following data: the specific weight of water is 9.81 kN/m³ and the specific gravity
of mercury is 13.546.
