    Group A books exert greater pressure on the shelf than Group B books because Group A books are stacked closer together in a smaller area. The pressure exerted by Group A books is 21 N/cm^2. A diver diving to a depth where the total pressure is 3.0 × 105 Pa would be at a depth of 2 meters below the sea surface.

    (b) A diver dives to a depth below the surface of the sea where the total pressure is 3.0 × 105 Pa.
    The atmospheric pressure is 1.0 × 105 Pa. The density of the sea water is 1030 kg / m3.

    Calculate the depth of the diver below the surface of the sea.
