: If I remember correctly from my SCUBA days, 33' of sea water = 1 atmosphere.

: Greg
Greg, YOU are right, sorry everyone, had a mild memory problem there. At 10 meters you have 2 atmosphere of pressure, 29.4 psi. Weight of the air and weight of the water. I would still argue that with 18" inches of submersion the presure in the space would be less then the pressure of the water and it would flow into the space. Correct?
