What are the approximate pressure gradients that hydrostatic pressures exert on an individual that is standing in water up to waist level?
What will be an ideal response?
At deep depths there is a higher amount of hydrostatic pressure when compared to superficial depths. For every 12 inches that a body part is submerged in the water, there is an exerted pressure of 22 mm Hg. For example, if the feet are 36 inches under the water surface, the pressure exerted on the feet would be 66 mm Hg, and if the knees are 24 inches under the water, the exerted force would be 44 mm Hg.
