What's the pressure at a depth of 120 meters in the ocean?

Answer 1

#P=rgh#
whereas

#r# is the density of the fluid,
#g# is the acceleration of gravity
#h# is the height of the fluid above the object

Based on this you can calculate it. I can't assume any values though; so the question probably has an extra given variable.

The pressure at a depth of 120 meters in the ocean is approximately 1.2 megapascals (MPa), which is equivalent to approximately 12 atmospheres (atm) or 174 psi (pounds per square inch).

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
