Contact Us Parents get help at BoatSafeKids Frank writes: My son is reading 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea and asked me what distance a league is. Also, he wanted to know what the water pressure per square inch per foot of depth under water is. Your help would be greatly appreciated. A league is a measurement of length used in estimating sea distances. Its length varies among different nations. In Great Britain, France, the US and Spain the league has a recognized length of 6,075 yards. (5,554.9 meters) As for the second part of your question, the water pressure increases the deeper you go. At the surface the atmospheric pressure is 14.7 PSI (pounds per square inch). For each foot of water depth the pressure increases by .445 PSI. You then have to add this to the atmospheric pressure to get the absolute pressure you are experiencing. In diving, each 33 feet adds an additional "atmosphere" or adds an additional 14.7 PSI to your body. As an example, at a water depth of 33' what would the pressure be?

Extractions: July 14, 2002 So why the hoopla and congratulations? I'm not sure. Fossett's flight probably qualified as a "circumnavigation" under the less-stringent circumnavigation rules established by the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale (the World Air Sports Federation). The international governing body of aeronautics states (according to the official Spirit of Freedom Site logs really short, a "circumnavigation" along that parallel would only require 12,482.64 miles of travel.)
Extractions: I was skeptical about an art book written by a Doctor of Physics and former chemistry major. However, one read of "Bright Earth" and science writer Philip Ball made me forget my hesitation. In addition to soaking in facts about cow's urine, shellfish and crushed beetles as pigment sources, this book offers insight into the idea that works of art throughout history were influenced a tremendous amount on pigments currently available at the time. Proof that color availability not only had enormous influence on art but in fact triggered entire movements, is presented here in a pleasurable way. You will never look at a painting in the same way again.
Extractions: RELATED SITES WASHINGTON (CNN) It's storming on the sun, and the blasts of solar particles spewing from that star are disrupting radio transmissions on Earth. The massive bursts of charged particles are part of the sun's peak in its 11-year solar activity cycle. Although the particles have produced scattered radio blackouts, they are not expected to significantly disrupt telecommunications or electrical power. HOMEWORK HELP Geomagnetic disturbances began Thursday when the first shock wave reached the Earth's magnetosphere. During that time, Aurora watchers might have seen particularly strong Northern Lights, while power grids and satellites may have experienced electrical problems, according to space weather forecasters. The U.S. Space Environment Center in Boulder, Colorado, issued an outlook for strong geomagnetic storms. They occur when bubbles of charged gas erupt off the sun, washing out over the planets in the solar system.

Senator Nelson, whose concern that environmental issues were not being addressed in the political arena, convinced President Kenedy to undertake a five-day, eleven-state conservation tour in 1963. Though the tour failed to bring conservation issues into the spotlight to the degree Senator Nelson had hoped, a movement had indeed begun.
