It is known that at the surface of the ocean, the water pressure is the same as the air pressure above the water having a value of 15lb/in2. Below the surface, the water pressure increases by 4.34lb/in2 for every 10 ft of descent
a.) Express the water pressure as a function of the depth below the ocean surface.
P=4.3410d+15 where:P=pressure in lbin2d=depth in ft
b.) At what depth is the pressure 100lb/in2?
if P=100,100=4.3410d+15d=195.85ftd≈196ft
