Answer:
Explanation:
Let pressure at surface of earth be P Pa.
pressure at height of 8.1 km in air can be calculated as follows .
pressure due to column of air of 8.1 km height
= h d g , h is height , d is density of air and g is acceleration due to gravity
= 8.1 x 1000 x .87 x 9.8 = 6.9 x 10⁴ Pa .
pressure at the height of 8.1 km
= P - 6.9 x 10⁴ Pa
Pressure due to column of 16 m in the sea
= h d g
16 x 1000 x 9.8
= 15.68 x 10⁴ Pa .
Pressure at depth of 16m
= P + 15.68 x 10⁴
pressure difference between points at height of 8.1 km and pressure at point 16 m deep
= P + 15.68 x 10⁴ - P + 6.9 x 10⁴ Pa
= 22.58 x 10⁴ Pa .
