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). ---
