Hi,
I’m a non-scientist looking for help with a physics (I think) question regarding a mystery I’m writing.
A man is submerged in a very small pool of elemental mercury. He is strapped to bolts at the concrete bottom, so that he will not float. The liquid just covers his body.
My question: given the weight of mercury, will this harm/crush him?
Thanks!
