What is the Pressure at 1200 feet below sea level?
Almost 550 pounds per square inch.
What is the water pressure at 1000 feet in pounds?
About 460 pounds per square inch.
How many pounds per square inch is the force of air pressure?
Atmosphere pressure can be measured in pounds per square inch, and this varies depending on how far a location is above or below sea level. At sea level, atmospheric pressure equals 14.7 pounds per square inch (or psi).
What is the force exterted on a surface divideed by the total area over which the force is exerted?
The force exerted on a surface divided by the total area over which the force is exerted is the pressure. Pressure = Force / Area Pascals = Newtons/ square meters Pa = N/m^2 or psi = lb/in^2 (pounds per square inch)
What pressure does a human bite have per square inch?
120 pounds
At sea level a square inch of surface is under almost how many pounds of pressure?
15 lbs.
What is the Pressure at 1200 feet below sea level?
Almost 550 pounds per square inch.
What is 100 pounds per square foot?
100 pounds per square foot (also denoted 100 psf) is most likely a pressure value. Think of it as having a block of steel 1 ft by 1 ft, weight of 100 pounds, and placing it on a flat surface. The pressure on the flat surface from the block of steel equally distributed over the 1 square foot area is 100 psf.
What is measured in terms of weight of air per unit surface area?
Air pressure is measured in pounds per square inch or psi.
What is the pressure the atmosphere exerts against the surface of the earth?
'Standard' atmospheric pressure is 14 pounds per square inch - or.. one 'bar'.

What does PSI mean in air pressure?
pounds per square inch
Convert 200lbs to psi?
The lb (Pound) is a unit of mass (sometimes called weight) and the psi (pounds per square inch) is a unit of pressure. I take it that you need to calculate the pressure of a number of pounds on a certain surface. You may find the suggested web site helpful. You can't convert pounds to pounds per square inch (psi). One is force and one is pressure. If you know the area over which the force is spread, then you can divide the force by the area and get pounds per square inch (psi).
What is the equation for pressure when the force is perpendicular to the surface area?
Pressure of solid on a solidWhen you apply a force to a solid object, the pressure is defined as the force applied divided by the area of application. The equation for pressure is: P = F/AwhereP is the pressureF is the applied forceA is the surface area where the force is appliedF/A is F divided by AFor example, if you push on an object with your hand with a force of 20 pounds, and the area of your hand is 10 square inches, then the pressure you are exerting is 20 / 10 = 2 pounds per square inch.
What is the water pressure at 1000 feet in pounds?
About 460 pounds per square inch.
How many pounds of pressure can a crab pinch at?
About 14,000 pounds per square inch
What can you compare 1700 psi to?
1700 pounds on a surface area of 1 square inch of surface area. (imagine Volkswagen Beetle sitting on 1 Sq inch of area for every inch under this pressure)
