Since water is much denser than air, deep-sea divers experience a much higher ambient pressure underwater. Each 10 meters of depth underwater adds another 1 atm to the ambient pressure experienced by the diver. (Note: this is in addition to the 1 atm ambient pressure at the surface of the water!) What pressure, in psi, is experienced by a diver 50.0 meters below the surface of the water

Answer:

If you are at sea level, each square inch of your surface is subjected to a force of 14.6 pounds. The pressure increases about one atmosphere for every 10 meters of water depth. At a depth of 5,000 meters the pressure will be approximately 500 atmospheres or 500 times greater than the pressure at sea level.

Explanation:

At sea level, a force of 14.6 pounds is applied to every square inch of your surface. For every 10 meters of sea depth, the pressure rises by approximately one atmosphere. The pressure will be about 500 atmospheres, or 500 times more than the pressure at sea level, at a depth of 5,000 meters.

Pressure is defined as the force applied perpendicularly to an object's surface divided by the surface area over which it is applied.

Pressure is the physical amount of force exerted on a particular area.

Pressure can be expressed as

Pressure = Force / area

There are three types  of pressure.

Thus, at sea level, a force of 14.6 pounds is applied to every square inch of your surface. For every 10 meters of sea depth, the pressure rises by approximately one atmosphere. The pressure will be about 500 atmospheres, or 500 times more than the pressure at sea level, at a depth of 5,000 meters.
