What partial pressure of oxygen is a scuba diver breathing if the total pressure is 6.3 ATM and 20 percent of the air is oxygen?
The answer to the question what partial pressure of oxygen is a scuba diver breathing if the total pressure is 6.3 atm and 20 % of the air is oxygen is 1.26 atm (atmospheres).
What is the expected pressure of air in lungs of a diver at 4 meters below the sea level?
Air pressure (at sea level) is about 1 bar; every 10 meters below the water surface, pressure increases by about 1 bar - that gives a total of 1 + 0.4 = 1.4 bar. (1 bar is about 1 atmosphere.)
If there is a total of one liter of nitrogen gas dissolved in the body tissue at sea level how much would be dissolved in a diver breathing air at 99 feet below the sea a?
4 litres. 99 Feet is approx 30 mts. For every 10 mtrs you are 1 atmosphere pressure than the surface so you are at 4 times the surface. So 4 litres.
How much preasser is gravity?
The pressure of gravity on a surface is(total force of gravity on the surface) divided by (area of the surface)
Total surface area of a cylinder?
1500 sq in of surface R-22 at120F tons of pressure
Does the evaporation in the evaporation column influence the total pressure?
evaporation as such influence on the total pressure. evaporation occurs when the total pressure is greater than the surface molecules vapour pressure. as the rate of evaporation increases , more vapour will be there at the top, and then the new total pressure will become the sum of the earlier total pressure and vapour pressure of the vapour evaporated. hence total pressure increases.............
That is the difference between force and pressure?
Pressure deals with the impact on a particular surface while force is the total impact on a particular surface
How will the pressure of an object change if its area is doubled?
It won't. The pressure within a hollow object may change if the surface area changes, hence the volume. The total pressure acting on the exterior of a solid object may change if the total surface area changes.

Why is air that is pressurized needed in scuba diving?
The pressure on a diver's body increases quickly with depth. At the surface we're all breathing air at 14.7 PSIg, or 1 "Atmosphere" (atm). Each 33 feet of sea water results in another 1 atm of pressure. This means, for example, that a diver's body is under a total pressure of 3 atmospheres at 66 feet of sea water (one of air, two of water). The human respiratory system is designed to operate at normal atmospheric pressure of 14.7 pounds per square inch. If we descend to 33 feet, the water pressure exerts a force of nearly 30 pounds per square inch on our bodies. Our bodies are incapable of breathing against that much pressure. A scuba pressure regulator is designed to deliver air at the same pressure as the surrounding water, allowing us to breathe.
What is the force on a surface divided by the total area cover which the force is exerted?
That's the definition of the 'pressure' which the force exerts on the surface.
