A scuba diver descends to a depth of 30 meters in the ocean.
Assuming the atmospheric pressure at the surface is 1.0 atm and that hydrostatic pressure increases by approximately 1.0 atm for every 10 meters of depth, what is the total pressure experienced by the diver?
- 3.0 atm
- 2.0 atm
- 4.0 atm
- 31 atm
