Explain what it means when we say that Earth’s oceans are in hydrostatic equilibrium. Now suppose you are a scuba diver. Would you expect the pressure to increase or decrease as you dive below the surface to a depth of 200 feet? Why?
Evangelista Torricelli was the first person to realize that we live at the bottomof an ocean of air. He correctly surmised that the pressure of our atmosphereis attributable to the weight of the air. The density of air at 0°C at the Earth'ssurface is 1.29 kg/m3 . The density decreases with increasing altitude (as theatmosphere thins). On the other hand, if we assume that the density isconstant at 1.29 kg/m3 up to some altitude h, and zero above that altitude, then h would represent the depth of the ocean of air.Use this model to determine the value of h that gives a pressure of 1.00 atmat the surface of the Earth.
Ok so... if you drill a hole through the core if the earth maybe 10 feet wide (ignoring magma and everything else that would make it impossible) and someone jumped in.. what would happen? Would they just keep falling both directions until they stop... or would they be going so fast that they leave our atmosphere... or something else? Explain if possible.

What happen if the objects' density is greater than, less than or equal to water's (1 gm /cm3)?

What is the pressure in the deepest ocean trenches?
