You can't say 'pressure per square inch. It's just 'pressure', which equals force per square inch. You divide the person's weight by the area of the foot in contact with the stairs to get the answer.
Pressure = Force/Area , And, the SI unit of pressure is the pascal (Pa), which is equal to one newton of force per square metre.
Things with hydraulic or gaseous pressure, like the tires on your car.
25,000 pounds per square meter cubed divided by 60 square centimeters.
to understand this answer we have to assume the following as givin fact. fluids do not compress, that out of the way, the hydraulic piston you push is a smaller diameter than the piston that does the work. for example lets say that you are using a 1 square inch piston as the one you are pressing, and you are using a 100 square inch piston as the one doing work. these numbers are greatly exaggerated but will work for the example if you put 10 pounds of pressure on the 1 inch cylinder, you will have 10 psi of pressure. when this is routed to the 100 square inch cylinder you will still have 10 psi of pressure, but now it is acting on 100 square inches (10 pounds per square inch times 100 square inches) this would calculate to 1000 pounds. it would be the same as a 1001 inch lever with the fulcrum being 1 inch in from one end, only you would exert force on the larger lever to gain a mechanical advantage. hydraulics used in this way are known as liquid levers
Assume a small piston (one square inch area) applies a weight of 1 lbs. to a confined hydraulic fluid. That provides a pressure of 1 lbs. per square inch throughout the fluid. If another larger piston with an area of 10 square inches is in contact with the fluid, that piston will feel a force of 1 lbs/square inch x 10 square inches = 10 lbs. So we can apply 1 lbs. to the small piston and get 10 lbs.
Hydraulics are typically measured in pounds per square inch, which is a measurement of pressure, or force exerted with respect to area. To calculate the force used, multiply the pressure measurement by the area measurement in inches. This will give you the force in pounds, then convert that to tons.
A manometer is a pressure gauge. A Crane Manometer might be one adapted to use on a crane, probably a steam crane, but could be hydraulic pressure on a Diesel. These are calibrated in PSI- Pounds Per Square Inch. I needn"t go into Manifold, Parastatifc and Residual, and other complications!

Suppose the smaller piston was 1 square cm and the large piston was 7 square cm. If you pushed on the small piston, the force would be multiplied 7 times on the large piston. The Hydraulic System is a system that uses liquids to transmit pressure and multiply force in a confined fluid. Hope this helped. (:
pounds per square inch
First thing, megapsacal litres is a unit of capacity, not volume. To calculate the capacity of a cylinder you first need to know the volume (in litres). Volume = py (3.14159) multiplied by r2, multiplied by the height (or length whatever the case may be). Capacity is then obtained by multiplying the internal volume of the vessel (in litres, L) by the design pressure (in megapascals, MPa). That is: Capacity (MPaL) = design pressure (MPa) x volume (L) To convert pressure in pounds per square inch (psi) to Mpa: 1 megapascal = 1000 kilopascals (kPa) 1 psi = 6.89 kPa Therefore, if design pressure is provided in psi then: design pressure (in Mpa) = design pressure (in psi) x 0.00689 Example: Assume your air receiver has a volume of 140 litres, with a design pressure of 160 psi. design pressure (MPa) = 160 x 0.00689 = 1.100 MPa (1,100kPa) Capacity = 1.100 x 140 = 154 MPaL

Hydraulics work, on the principle that a fluid can not be compressed. A pump of some sort( electric, mechanical, or hand operated), pushes the hydraulic fluid, threw the hydraulic system under pressure. It is the pressure (psi) that does the work. Depending on how high the pressure( usually 1-2000psi), volume of fluid and the area the fluid is working on determines the how much and how fast the work it can do. An example, a pump putting out 100psi(psi= lbs per sq. inch) to a ram with an area of 1 square inch, can lift 100 lbs. If it was hooked to a ram with twice the area, it could lift twice as much but only half as fast based on the same flow rate.
