Due to its slight compressibility, the density of water varies with depth, although its bulk modulus EV¯ = 2.20 GPa (absolute) can be considered constant.
Part A
Accounting for this compressibility, determine the gage pressure in the water at a depth of 1900 m , if the density at the surface of the water is ρ0 = 1000 kg/m3.
P compressible=
Part B
Assuming water to be incompressible, determine the gage pressure in the water at a depth of 1900 m .
P incompressible=
