Answer:

Explanation:

Given that, .

Pressure around scuba is

P = 10^5 Pa

1 Pa = 1 N/m²

Then

P = 10^5 N/m²

Descending height

h = 10m

Change in force per unit square centimetre

We know that,

Pressure = Force / Area

Then,

Force / Area is the required question we are finding

Then,

Force / Area = 10^5 N / m²

So, let convert the m² to cm²

100cm = 1m

(100cm)² = (1m)²

10⁴cm² = 1m²

Then,

Force / Area = 10^5 N/m² × 1m² / 10⁴cm²

Force / Area = 10 N/cm²

So, the force per unit square centimeters is 10.
