Lots of companies build machinery for the offshore industry – footings for wind turbines, robots to lay or inspect cables, and more. Testing machines designed to be used underwater isn’t just a case of dunking them in water. You also have to think about pressure.
This worksheet takes students through concepts and calculations about pressure in a fluid, and introduces engineering company Tyne Subsea, whose hyperbaric chambers are used to test underwater machinery.
Suitable as a revision or homework worksheet at the end of a topic, this worksheet provides students physics questions in the context of a road-mending company.
Supports inclusion of careers in the curriculum for subject teachers.
