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.
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.
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.

Exerting pressure is the act of applying force or weight on an object or surface. This pressure can cause a change in the state or shape of the object. Examples of exerting pressure include pushing, squeezing, or compressing an object.

A fluid exerts pressure on an object immersed in it due to the weight of the fluid above the object pressing down. The pressure increases with depth as the weight of the fluid column increases, leading to greater pressure on objects deeper in the fluid. This pressure is essential for buoyancy and stability in submerged objects.
A fluid exerts pressure on an object immersed in it in all directions due to the weight of the fluid above. The pressure increases with depth because of the increasing weight of the fluid column. This pressure is known as hydrostatic pressure and is a fundamental concept in fluid mechanics.
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.
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.
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:
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)
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.
1 psi (pound per square inch) is equivalent to 6.895 kPa (kilopascal). To determine the volume of water in liters that exerts 1 psi in one hour, the specific conditions of the system (such as the size of the container or the flow rate) need to be known. The volume of water can be calculated using the formula V = (P * A * t) / (ρ * g), where P is the pressure in pascals, A is the cross-sectional area, t is time in seconds, ρ is the density of water, and g is the acceleration due to gravity.
When air exerts a force, it is called air pressure. Air pressure is the force exerted by the weight of air above a given point.
