An area of 1 square inch!
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.
1 square inch of ink.
it depends on both the tube wall thickness and the length of the bend and how much you bend it. Otherwise you cannot determine force.
That would also depend on the thickness of that square inch!
The force of 60 pounds per square inch (PSI) depends on the area over which it is applied. To calculate the force, you need to multiply the pressure (60 PSI) by the area in square inches. For example, if the area is 1 square inch, then the force would be 60 pounds.
Pressure, measured in psi (pounds per square inch), does not have a weight. Pressure is a force distributed over a given area. In this case, 1000 psi indicates the amount of force applied over one square inch.
The femur, the strongest bone in the human body, can withstand compressive forces of around 1,700 to 2,500 pounds-force per square inch (psi) before breaking.
One square inch
None. A square inch has no volume.

How much some costs per square inch depends on the product. Tile for example, can cost up to 3 dollars per square inch.
That all depends on how many square inches you have, to which to apply the pressure, my boy. If you can only press on one square inch, then you must concentrate the entire 10 stone of weight onto that one meager square inch. If on the other hand, you can spread the weight of the 10 stone over an entire Rugby field, then you shan't require much force indeed on each square inch of it, now do you ? Whatever the area you have available, the upward force on the entire area must add up to 10 stone. The more area you have, the more thinly you can spread that total force. The amount of force on each square inch is the pressure. Now be off with you; go study your lessons.
