Challenge Deep in the Marianas Trench of the Pacific Ocean is the deepest known spot in the Earth’s oceans, at 10.922 km below sea level. Taking density of seaweight at atmospheric preassure(p0 = 101.3 kPa) to be 1024 kg/m3 and its bulk modulus to be B(p) = B0 + 6.67 (p - p0) ,with B0 = 2.19 •109 pa, calculate the preassure and the density of the seawater at the bottom of challenger Deep,Disregard variation in water temperature and salinity with depth.Is it a good approximation to treat the density of seawater as essentially constant?
