Question

In the Challenger Deep of the Marianas Trench, the depth of seawater is 10.9 km and the pressure is 1.16×10^8 Pa, (about 1150 atmospheres).

 

If a cubic meter of water is taken to this depth from the surface (where the normal atmospheric pressure is about 1.0×10^5 Pa), what is the change in its volume? Assume that the bulk modulus for seawater is the same as for freshwater 2.2×10^9 Pa.

Report in cubic meters.
