How many vertical feet of water is equal to one pound per square inch?

A one foot liquid head of water will exert a force of 1.04167 psi. 27.7 inches of water = 1 psig... Mean and dirty 1foot=1/2psig


How do you convert 32 pounds per square feet in to how many pound per square inch?

divide by 27 = 1.185

4.0kg per square cm equates to approximately 57 pounds per square inch.


At sea level a square inch of surface is under almost how many pounds of pressure?

15 lbs.


How many pounds per sq foot is 5000 pounds?

Your question does not contain enough information to answer. But . . . let's assume that the 5,000 pounds is spread out over a flat surface measuring 50 ft x 100 ft. That equals 5,000 square feet. 5,000/5,000 square feet = 1. So our 5,000 pounds would exert exactly 1 pound per square foot at every point. Let's next say that we spread out the 5,000 pound, but thicker, on a flat surface measuring 25 feet x 50 ft. That equals 1,250 square feet. So our 5,000 pounds is now supported by only 1,250 square feet. We know by looking at it that each square foot will support more of the weight than in the first example. 5,000/1,250 = 4. So our 5,000 pounds in this case would exert exactly 4 pounds per square foot. Carried to an extreme, let's say our 5,000 pounds sits on just one square foot of flat surface. 5,000/1 = 5,000 pounds per square foot. Even crazier, our 5,000 pounds might sit on just a 6 inch x 6 inch flat surface. 6" = 0.25 square feet. So, once again, 5,000/.25 = 20,000 pounds per square foot.
