Question:

In the deep ocean the compressibility of seawater is significant in its effect on \(ho\) and \(p\). If \(E=2.07 \times 10^{9} \mathrm{~Pa}\), find the percentage change in the density and pressure at a depth of 10,000 metres as compared to the values obtained at the same depth under the incompressible assumption. Let \(ho_{o}=1020 \mathrm{~kg} / \mathrm{m}^{3}\) and the absolute pressure \(p_{o}=101.3 \mathrm{kPa}\)
