📖 Why Pressure Changes with Depth

Water pressure increases as depth increases. Deeper water has more water above it pressing downward. Divers and submarines must be designed for these greater pressures. A container with holes at different heights can model the effect because lower holes often spray farther.

1. How does water pressure change with depth?

 

2. Why is pressure greater deeper underwater?

 

3. What must be designed for greater pressure?

 

4. How can a container model the effect?

 

✏️ Writing

Write 1–2 paragraphs explaining why water pressure increases with depth.
