Assume that water is an incompressible fluid with a density of 1000 kg/m³. Consider two points in a swimming pool; one being at the water surface; the other one being 7 feet deep. a) b) What is the hydrostatic pressure difference between these two points? Express your result in bar. Real water is slightly compressible (but this effect is small for a depth of 7'). Does the compressibility of water increase or decrease the hydrostatic pressure?
