Determine the pressure exerted on the surface of a submarine cruising 175 ft below the free surface of the sea. assume that the barometric pressure is 14.7 psia and the specific gravity of seawater is 1.03.

92.81 psia.

Explanation:

The density of water by multiplying its specific gravity by the density of sea water.

SG = density of sea water/density of water

ρ = SG x ρw

1 kg/m3 = 62.4 lbm/ft^3

= 1.03 * 62.4

= 64.27lbm/ft^3.

The absolute pressure at 175 ft below sea level as this is the location of the submarine.

P = Patm +ρgh

= 14.7 + 64.27 * 32.2 * 175

Converting to pound force square inch,

= 14.7 + 64.27 * (32.2ft/s^2) * (175ft) * (1lbf/32.2lbm⋅ft/s^2) * (1ft^2/144in^2 )

= 14.7 + 78.11 psia

= 92.81 psia.

i was thinking more like reflects green light, just not sure

this a false
