I know this might be an odd question, and I think I understand the reason why it can't be done for deep dives, but just wanted to make sure. (brainfart)
Thought problem:
If a diver wanted to go deep and had a hose that somehow was able to extend as he descended but while still having the other end of the hose at the surface, allowing him to breathe air at 1ATM, what would happen to the diver at depth?
So I understand that the deeper you go the pressure increases relative to the depth you are breathing the air from in ATM' pressure. Im assuming the pressure to breathe from depth up to the surface would make it almost impossible to breathe at even 30m. Just wondering out of curiosity, coworker asked me this question and I didn't know what to say haha. So would the diver be even able to breathe? The idea of surface-supplied diving comes to mind but this is just a thought problem with a magical hose.
