The deepest point in the ocean is in the mariana trench


The deepest point in the ocean is in the Mariana Trench, about 11 km deep, in the Pacific. The pressure at this depth is huge, about 1.13 X 10^8 N/m^2.

a) Calculate the change in volume of 1.00 m^3 of seawater carried from the surface to the deepest point.

b) The density of seawater at the surface is 1.03 X 10^3 kg/m^3. Find its density at the bottom.

c) Explain whether or when it is a good approximation to thing of water as incompressible.
