minus-squareVictor@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·4 months ago Let’s convert to metric so we can tell. 15 ft is about 5 m. Water pressure increases by 10,000 pa per meter (rhogh, rho=1000 kg/m^3, g~10m/s^2), so total pressure is 50 kpa, or 1/2 earth atmospheric pressure. This is very interesting. I like unit conversions. What I did was just take 21-14 psi, and then converted that to bar or atm. I got a number close to ½. I was like, half an atm? Can’t be that bad? I can handle 1 full mf atm literally all mf day mf. But I guess that’s different somehow? I just don’t understand how yet. If anyone would care to go into it with me… 🙏
minus-squareweker01@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up2·4 months agoRemember a vacuum does not have suction it’s the air that presses things under vacuum together. One atm is actually quite a lot but we can withstand that as it’s pressing at us from all sides including inside. See this example of how strong 1 atm can be
