The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine the difference in depth \( d_2 - d_1 \) experienced by the submarine based on the pressures at those depths.
### Step-by-Step Solution:
1. **Identify the given values:**
- Pressure at depth \( d_1 \) (P1) = \( 5.05 \times 10^6 \) Pa
- Pressure at depth \( d_2 \) (P2) = \( 8.08 \times 10^6 \) Pa
- Density of water (\( \rho \)) = \( 10^3 \) kg/m³
- Acceleration due to gravity (\( g \)) = \( 10 \) m/s²
2. **Use the hydrostatic pressure formula:**
The pressure at a depth in a fluid is given by:
\[
P = P_0 + \rho g h
\]
where \( P_0 \) is the atmospheric pressure (which we can ignore since it cancels out), \( \rho \) is the density of the fluid, \( g \) is the acceleration due to gravity, and \( h \) is the depth.
3. **Set up the equations for both depths:**
For depth \( d_1 \):
\[
P_1 = \rho g d_1
\]
For depth \( d_2 \):
\[
P_2 = \rho g d_2
\]
4. **Subtract the two equations:**
To find \( d_2 - d_1 \), we can subtract the first equation from the second:
\[
P_2 - P_1 = \rho g (d_2 - d_1)
\]
5. **Rearranging the equation:**
\[
d_2 - d_1 = \frac{P_2 - P_1}{\rho g}
\]
6. **Substitute the known values:**
- Calculate \( P_2 - P_1 \):
\[
P_2 - P_1 = 8.08 \times 10^6 \, \text{Pa} - 5.05 \times 10^6 \, \text{Pa} = 3.03 \times 10^6 \, \text{Pa}
\]
- Now substitute into the equation:
\[
d_2 - d_1 = \frac{3.03 \times 10^6 \, \text{Pa}}{(10^3 \, \text{kg/m}^3)(10 \, \text{m/s}^2)}
\]
7. **Calculate the depth difference:**
\[
d_2 - d_1 = \frac{3.03 \times 10^6}{10^4} = 303 \, \text{m}
\]
8. **Conclusion:**
The difference in depth \( d_2 - d_1 \) is approximately \( 303 \, \text{m} \).
### Final Answer:
The approximate difference in depth \( d_2 - d_1 \) is **300 m** (rounding to the nearest option).
