Question:

Some scientists are eager to send a remote-controlled submarine to Jupiter’s moon Europa to search for life in its oceans below an icy crust. Europa’s mass has been measured to be 4.80 × 1022 kg, its diameter is 3120 km, and it has no appreciable atmosphere. Assume that the layer of ice at the surface is not thick enough to exert substantial force on the water. If the windows of the submarine you are designing each have an area of 625 cm2 and can stand a maximum inward force of 8750 N per window, what is the greatest depth to which this submarine can safely dive?
