The effects of underwater pressure on the body - Neosha S Kashef
View full lesson: ed.ted.com/lessons/the-effects...
Why would a fish throw up its stomach? What makes a scuba diver develop painful microbubbles in their joints? Neosha S Kashef details the basics of barotrauma, shedding light on how humans and fish alike are influenced by laws of physics under the sea.

For people outside the U.S a quick explanation : 14.7 psi = 1 bar. 33 feet = 10 meters. When you a you dive down the ocean, each 10 meters have 1 bar of pressure on you (at sea surface which is 0 meters deep, you have the usual atmospheric pressure which is already 1 bar) . It also adds up, meaning : if you're at 10m deep you will feel 2 bars of pressure, if you're 20m deep 3 bars, 30m is 4bars, etc. Cheers :)

also, 1 bar is very close to 1 atm. atm stands for atmosphere, because 1 atm is the pressure the atmosphere exerts on you on the surface at around sea level. so if that's a unit you're more used to, there you go

They felt nothing because they were inside the submersible with same pressure as the surface water. Only the submersible felt the tremendous pressure of deep depth and imploded when a weak point gave in.
Great effort and excellently explained, Thanks!

It happens independent of an individual, but because humans aren't perfect and the language is transfered through generations with little changes. The language changes, it's inevitable. Also it's normal if the language has regional variants. 'Cause we're all different. And if you change the spelling of the word, you don't change the actual word at all. I can spell the word "fish" like "feesh", "pheashe", or even "ghoti" (google "ghoti"), but it doesn't change its pronuncation, usage and meaning at all.

Does the volume of water affects pressure in diving deep? for example a 5x5 pool which is 100m deep with 1k gallons of sea water vs 100m deep ocean with tons of seawater. Will it influence pressure? Why Or why not?
@samuelhawksworth1923
2 жыл бұрын
Pressure = Force x area, force = weight = mass x gravitational strength, area = vol / height, vol = mass / density. applying all this gives pressure = height (depth) x density of fluid x gravitational field strength. volume isn't necessary for pressure :)
I will never understand catch and release fishing. Eat it or don’t fish at all.
cool video but my main question was WHY does going deeper cause more pressure? is it the weight of the water? or difference in gravity? or some sort of chemical that gets more potent at deeper levels????
@boxhead171
6 жыл бұрын
It is because of the increased weight of the water above you as you go deeper, the weight of this water is the force acting on the area of your body. As pressure is force per unit area, this explains how the pressure increases as the force (weight of water in this case) increases

so would diving 1,000 ft into the ocean be the same as going 1,000 feet down a water filled tube shaped just like your body?
@boxhead171
6 жыл бұрын
Exactly, the equation used to calculate the force of the water is: F = density*height of water*acceleration due to gravity, this is then multiplied by the surface area of your body which remains constant. So the only variable is the height of water above you

hmmm, thats really interesting. because i feel like the water can hold itself up.also it is a fluid and thus 1 part is connected to the rest. so how can 1 square inch of water push down on 1 square inch of skin. because if I go into a bath tub im fine, but on the same coin, if i swim to the bottom of a 14 foot pool i feel my ears/head cracking.

What happens if you keep decreasing pressure of water does it turn into airr. What is the least pressure water can be
@boxhead171

if you keep decreasing the pressure acting on water it then it would eventually vaporise, the pressure at which this happens depends upon the temperature of the water.

you'd feel some amount of pressure in your ears, because eardrums are sensitive to pressure changes (but there are easy ways to fix that), and you probably wouldn't really feel anything more than that. if you had a balloon with you on the surface and took it down with you, it'd be less than half its original size, but our bodies aren't that soft, we've got bones and all, so you'd be fine. it'd be a little more than experiencing the equivalent of the pressure of two atmospheres on you, rather than the 1 we feel on the surface, since 30ish feet of water basically cause as much pressure as our whole atmosphere.
Here after Submarine incident 2023
can u repost the video just involving some more detail and the S.I units please
This fish lives at 55 bars of pressure, when you bring it outof the water it's suddenly only at 1 bar of pressure, a difference of 54 Bars. It's eyes bulge etc, yet it doesn't explode. When a human is exposed to the vaccuum of space, it's a drop from 1 bar of pressure to 0 bar of pressure, a difference of only 1 bar. Compare that to the immense 54 bars difference that the fish goes through. This is why a human exposed to the vaccuum of space does not explode, it's just not enough of a pressure difference. Humans exploding in space is just a myth.

I wonder what happens if a submarine implodes underwater
Here because of Titan submersible
I’m confused. 1. Why would Nitrogen dissolve more as you get lower, the water pressure isn’t forcing nitrogen molecules into the blood solution. Because your blood vessels don’t compress under all that pressure...? 2. Why can’t you just breathe out the nitrogen bubbles once they form in your blood?
@Jukajobs
2 жыл бұрын
1. as far as i know, it's because the air inside your cylinder has to be at a certain pressure so it's able to come out of the cylinder despite the pressure of the water around it, so that air is at a pressure. and more gases are able to dissolve in liquids when those gases are in higher pressures, that's just how gases work. 2. the human body can't really deal with bubbles in that way. the oxygen and CO2 we breathe in and out is not being transported in our blood in the form of bubbles (as far as i know, at least), so it's just not a thing our bodies are capable of doing.

Today I read a letter that Virginia Woolf wrote in 1912, days after the Titanic sank, from which I quote: "it’s a fact that ships don’t sink at that depth, but remain poised half way down, and become perfectly flat. So that Mrs. Stead is now like a pancake, and her eyes like copper coins". Now I'm desperately trying to find out if indeed pressure would do that to a body trapped inside, say, a ship, halfway the bottom of an ocean.
@Jukajobs

i really don't think it'd make a person's body look like a pancake. bones don't become flattened like that at those pressures. also, the titanic did sink to the bottom of the sea, we know the wreck is on the sea floor, and even the deep sea doesn't have high enough pressures to flatten a whole ship made out of metal and stuff like that, not even close. i have no idea about what someone's eyes would look like at that depth, but i'm guessing they wouldn't last very long anyway.

中文(简体)chinese screen share,made by myself, for a basic view. ====================================== 1 00:00:07.049 -->00:00:10.164 有时你会看到,当一条鱼被卷到水面时 2 00:00:10.164 -->00:00:12.160 它会出现膨胀, 3 00:00:12.160 -->00:00:14.222 它的眼睛会鼓出眼眶 4 00:00:14.222 -->00:00:16.622 它的胃会 伸出它的嘴, 5 00:00:16.622 -->00:00:19.289 仿佛被吹成一个气球。 6 00:00:19.289 -->00:00:22.893 这种类型的身体变化是由水压的迅速变化引起的。 7 00:00:22.893 -->00:00:25.433 被称为气压伤。 8 00:00:25.433 -->00:00:30.350 在海面下,每平方英寸上的压力增大14.7磅, 9 00:00:30.350 -->00:00:33.848 每下潜33英尺。 10 00:00:33.848 -->00:00:35.750 因此,对于黄眼石斑鱼, 11 00:00:35.750 -->00:00:38.926 它可以活在深1800英尺, 12 00:00:38.926 -->00:00:43.423 那里每平方英寸上有超过800磅的压力。 13 00:00:43.423 -->00:00:47.854 这相当于北极熊体重的四分之一。 14 00:00:47.854 -->00:00:50.106 现在,玻意耳气体定律告诉我们 15 00:00:50.106 -->00:00:54.416 该气体的体积反比于压力。 16 00:00:54.416 -->00:00:58.366 所以,任何空气填充的空间,像石斑鱼的鱼鳔, 17 00:00:58.366 -->00:01:00.165 或人体肺部, 18 00:01:00.165 -->00:01:02.469 在他们下降更深时压缩, 19 00:01:02.469 -->00:01:05.077 在他们提升时膨胀。 20 00:01:05.077 -->00:01:09.377 后一条鱼咬了渔夫的鱼钩并迅速升到水表, 21 00:01:09.377 -->00:01:12.980 鱼鳔中的空气开始膨胀。 22 00:01:12.980 -->00:01:17.412 它的快速扩张把鱼的肚子顶出鱼嘴, 23 00:01:17.412 -->00:01:22.481 而增加的内压把它的眼睛退出来, 24 00:01:22.481 -->00:01:25.403 这种情况称为眼球突出。 25 00:01:25.403 -->00:01:29.652 有时石斑鱼的眼睛会甚至有结晶外观 26 00:01:29.652 -->00:01:31.895 因为角膜气肿, 27 00:01:31.895 -->00:01:35.567 角膜内会出现很多小气泡。 28 00:01:35.567 -->00:01:40.505 值得庆幸的是,潜水员不需要为一个封闭的鱼鳔担心。 29 00:01:40.505 -->00:01:45.172 潜水员可调节她的肺部压力,通过呼吸上升, 30 00:01:45.172 -->00:01:49.472 但必须警惕水下的其他物理定律, 31 00:01:49.472 -->00:01:53.429 亨利定律表明溶解在液体中的气体的 32 00:01:53.429 -->00:01:56.635 是正比于它的分压。 33 00:01:56.635 -->00:02:00.720 潜水员呼吸的空气是78%氮气。 34 00:02:00.720 -->00:02:02.521 在海下有更高的压力, 35 00:02:02.521 -->00:02:04.957 从空气中潜水罐中的氮气 36 00:02:04.957 -->00:02:10.907 浓度会比在陆地上扩散到潜水员的组织中更大。 37 00:02:10.907 -->00:02:13.245 如果潜水员上升过快, 38 00:02:13.245 -->00:02:16.434 溶解的氮会从溶液中释放。 39 00:02:16.434 -->00:02:20.326 在她的组织、血液和关节中形成的微泡, 40 00:02:20.326 -->00:02:24.491 导致减压病,又名潜水员病。 41 00:02:24.491 -->00:02:28.921 这类似 二氧化碳气泡从你的汽水里冒出来。 42 00:02:28.921 -->00:02:32.172 当压力减小, 溶液里会冒出的气体。 43 00:02:32.172 -->00:02:34.872 但对于一个潜水员,气泡 引起剧烈疼痛 44 00:02:34.872 -->00:02:37.184 有时甚至死亡。 45 00:02:37.184 -->00:02:40.519 为幸免于潜水员病,潜水员缓慢上升 46 00:02:40.519 -->00:02:45.311 并沿途休息片刻, 即所谓的减压站, 47 00:02:45.311 -->00:02:48.296 因此气体有时间从自己的组织里扩散 48 00:02:48.296 -->00:02:51.026 并通过他们的呼吸被释放。 49 00:02:51.026 -->00:02:53.022 正如一名潜水员需要减压, 50 00:02:53.022 -->00:02:56.427 对于鱼,它需要再压缩, 51 00:02:56.427 -->00:02:59.509 这可以通过把它放回了大海实现。 52 00:02:59.509 -->00:03:02.982 但是,这并不意味着鱼应该往船外扔。 53 00:03:02.982 -->00:03:04.809 充气的身体会浮在水上 54 00:03:04.809 -->00:03:09.196 并被饥饿的海狮吃掉或者海鸥啄食。 55 00:03:09.196 -->00:03:10.495 有一个通俗的故事 56 00:03:10.495 -->00:03:14.384 即刺穿它的肚子用针将让空气逸出, 57 00:03:14.384 -->00:03:17.023 让鱼自己游回去。 58 00:03:17.023 -->00:03:19.910 但是,它现在是一只气球,不应被弄破。 59 00:03:19.910 -->00:03:22.449 要让鱼返回到正确的栖息地, 60 00:03:22.449 -->00:03:25.213 渔民可以使用下沉设备, 61 00:03:25.213 -->00:03:29.902 用钓鱼线把它降到正确的深度。 62 00:03:29.902 -->00:03:32.922 当它回到家园并且被再压缩,鱼鳔的体积减小, 63 00:03:32.922 -->00:03:35.652 它的眼睛可以返回眼眶, 64 00:03:35.652 -->00:03:38.965 它的胃可以回到原位。 65 00:03:38.965 -->00:03:41.153 这条鱼会活着看到第二天, 66 00:03:41.153 -->00:03:46.926 再次的自由的游泳,觅食,繁衍。
Nothing worse than air exscaping.
