* Provide screenshots of your measurements at 1.5 meters and at 3.0 meters for Jupiter
1. How does the atmospheric pressure on Jupiter at different depth levels of water
compare with those measured for Earth? For example, are they similar in magnitude
, and do the pressures increase at the same rate ?
2. Why does gravity impact atmospheric pressure?
3. Examine the differences in atmospheric pressure recorded in the two tables above.
Discuss whether the quantitative differences between the measured atmospheric
pressures (in kPa) for the two planets at the different levels corroborate the differences in the gravity for Earth and Jupiter
