How much is water compressed in volume at the bottom of the Mariana trench?

Answer 1

Once, the Beebe bathyscaphe was lowered on a chain to several thousand feet in an unmanned trial. When it resurfaced and the first hatch bolt was undone, it shot out like a bullet. Somehow high pressure water had found its way in. This proves that water isn't completely incompressible. Experiments have shown that at much greater depths than our ocean trenches, like 80 km. or so, the pressure would keep water solid even at high temperatures. At the bottom of the Marianas Trench the pressure is about 1000 times sea level pressure. The volume of water decreases by about 10% when taken down to that depth. To reduce it to half its sea level volume, you'd need to compress it to 10 000 atmospheres.

Answer 2

The pressure at the bottom of the Mariana trench is
1,090 Kg/c2 x 16.387 = (apr) 17,500 psi. Water and the liquids in general are considered non compressible fluids howerver there might be a slight decrease in its volume <1%

Answer 3

Water cannot be compressed into a smaller volume. The pressure you would feel would be the weight of the water.

Answer 4

Water, in liquid form, is incompressible.

Answer 5

Water is pretty much incompressible

Answer 6

0 %

Answer 7

I think its $2.79 a gallon, same as gas.... Am I right??

Answer 8

not too much that you cant swim down there
