A female giant squid is about 12 m long (mostly tentacle length). The largest part, the mantle, is about 2 m long. If we estimate the diameter of the mantle to be 0.8 m across and that its shape is roughly cylindrical, how much force does the squid feel on its mantle at 300 m and 1000 m? The area of a cylinder is .Acyl = 2 r 2 2 rh
