Chapter 10: Q13P (page 260)

(II) In a movie, Tarzan evades his captors by hiding underwater for many minutes while breathing through a long, thin reed. Assuming the maximum pressure difference his lungs can manage and still breathe is 鈥�85 mm-Hg, calculate the deepest he could have been.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The deepest he could have been underwater was 1.15m below the surface.

Step by step solution

01

Step-1: Difference in pressure

The change in pressure of a substance is influenced by the variation in depth and the density of the substance.

02

 Given the data

The maximum depth is calculated as;


Here 螖 h is the change in depth, 蟻 is the density of water and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

Substitute the values in the above relation.


The maximum depth up to which he could go underwater is 1.15m below the surface.
