A person swims from a depth of 0.5m to 1.7m below the surface of the sea. Denisty Sea Water = 1030 kg/m^3. g=Gravitational Field Strength = 9.8 N/kg. Calculate the change in pressure on the swimmer and give the unit.

Use equation: Pressure = density x depth in the fluid x gravitational field strength. We know the in increase in pressure will be the difference between the Final Pressure (at 1.7m) and the Initial Pressure ...
