    p=15.097lbf/in^2

    Explanation:

    the manometric pressure is that in which the atmospheric pressure is not taken into account, so for this case only the pressure exerted by the water on the bus is calculated using the following equation.

    P=ρgh

    where

    ρ=density of water at 55°F=999.4kg/m^3

    g=9.81m/s^2

    h=35ft=10.668m

    Solving

    P = (994.4) (9.81) (10.668) = 104067.02Pa = 15.097lbf/in^2

    the gage pressure does a skin diver experience when they dive to 35 ft is 15.097lbf/in^2
