Homework Statement


The pressure exerted on an underwater vessel is 9.42 ATM. If the vessel is in fresh water, to what depth has the vessel descended?

2. Formula

P=Po + pgh

It is fresh water so p=1000 kg/m^3

Hi cchiapuzio and welcome to the forum!
Do you know any formula that relates pressure vs depth? If yes, post it here and try to use it. :smile:
Also, what is water density?
