Pressure question

At a specific depth in a swimming pool, a barometer measures the total pressure to be twice that of atmospheric pressure. If the barometer is now submerged to a depth that is twice its initial depth, by how much does the total pressure increase? A. 50% B. 100% C. 200% D. 300% A) 50% We can use the ratio technique to handle this percentage change type of problem. The relevant situation here is the relationship of pressure to depth: Ptotal = Patm + ρgh Applying this to the first depth... Pressure question
