20 pounds per sq/in
A column of water 2.31 ft high exerts a pressure of 1 pound per square inch how much pressure does a column of water 47 ft high exert?
Given that this stands out a mile as almost certainly a school homework question, to answer directly would be to make me complicit in cheating. So I will tell you how to calculate it, which would appear to be the point of the question: 1) The relationship between depth and pressure of water is linear. 2) If water X ft deep exerts a pressure of P lb/in2, then water of Y ft deep will obviously exert a pressure of P(Y/X) lbs/in2 Given thats information you can now solve the original question.
How do you find the weight of a suitcase having a mass of 72kg exerts the pressure of 85Pa on the ground?
If it has a mass of 72 kg, then its weight on earth is 705.6 newtons (about 158.7 pounds). Its size, shape, color, fabric, contents, or the pressure it exerts on the ground don't matter. Consider this: If you set the suitcase down on its bottom, on one side, or on one end, its pressure on the ground would be different in each case, but its weight would not change.
What is pressure force?
Pressure is defined as the following Pressure = force / area. So what this means is pressure is how much force is exerted over a area of given size. For examle a concrete slab is on the floor this slab has a width of 2m and a length of 2 m its area is 2 x 2 which gives 2m Squared. Its force it exerts is 1000 newtons ok what the hell does this mean? if you place this in the formula you will get pressure = 1000/4 Pressure = 250 newtons per square metre. I hope this answers you question on what pressure is.
A column of water 2.31 feet high exerts a pressure of one pound per square inch How much pressure does a column of water 27feet 9 iches high exert?
12.01 psi
What is exerting pressure?
Force exerts pressure. For example: At the surface of the Earth the column of air in the atmosphere above an area has a mass that exerts a force (due to gravity) on that surface area.
A column of water 2.31 feet high exerts a pressure of one pound per square inch How much pressure does a column of water 46.20 feet high exert?
20 pounds per sq/in
What happen as you descend through the water column?
As someone descends through a water column, the pressure increases. This happens because water at higher levels exerts weight on the lower layers of water.
How does pressure change with altitude and why?
Air (atmosphere) goes up to only a few miles from the surface of the earth. Imagine a column of air as felt on the surface of the earth. Every square unit of area experiences the force exerted by this enormous column of air. As you travel upwards the column of air above from that point up is smaller and so exerts less force per unit area. Force per unit area is pressure and that is why the pressure decreases as we travel up. To give you something you can relate to easily, the pressure at the bottom of a swimming pool will be more than the pressure half way up from the bottom because in the first case a larger column of water exerts its weight whereas in the second case it exerts only half the weight.
Why does the water pressure in a bottle increase when you put your hand on the top of it?
Because your hand replaces the column of air which was 'pressing' on the content of the bottle. Your hand exerts more pressure than the air.(: :) :p P:
Describe the reason a fluid exerts pressure on an object immersed in the fluid?
The pressure that a fluid exerts depends on the density and the depth of the fluid.
Under what circumstances a fluid exerts equal pressure in all direction?
Any liquid exerts equal pressure in all directions.
When air exerts a force it is called?
-- Pressure -- Wind
How do you calculate water pressure at top if water pressure given at bottom?
Every 2.3077 feet of water in a column increases the water pressure at the bottom of the column by 1 pound per square inch.A 39 foot column of water with a pressure of 120 psi at the base will have a pressure exerted on its top surface of 103.1 psi.39 ft/ 2.3077 ft/1 psi = 16.9 psi ; 120 psi -16.9 psi = 103.1 psievery meter of water in a column increases the pressure at the base of the column by 0.1 kg./ sq. cm (or 1 kilopascal)A 12 meter column of water exerts a pressure at its base of 12 kPa. (or 1.2 kg/sq. cm)
How many psi equals 1 water column?
You need to know how high the water column is to calculate the pressure it exerts at its base! For example, a column of water 1 metre deep would exert a pressure of 9.81 kPa at its base (density x gravity x depth - 1000 * 9.81 * 1). This would be equal to approx 1.42 PSI.
How many liters of water exerts 1 psi in one hour?
The pressure exerted by water has nothing to do with the number of liters, nor with time. It is only related to the height of the water column.
