Answer:
1229.08975 kPa
Explanation:
Given that:
The depth of the water = 100 m below the surface of the water.
The density of the water = 1150 kgm
The mass of the water = depth of the water × density of the water
The mass of the water = 100 m × 1150 kgm
The mass of the water = 115000 kgf/m²
The mass of the water is the pressure of the water at a depth of 100 m below the surface of the water.
Since 1 kgf/m² = 0.00980665 kPa
Then 115000 kgm² = (115000 × 0.00980665) kPa
= 1127.76475 kPa
At standard temperature and pressure , the atmospheric pressure = 101.325 kPa.
Therefore, the pressure below the surface of sea water = 1127.76475 kPa + 101.325 kPa
= 1229.08975 kPa
