How much weight kg can you lift with 1 psi of water pressure?

You can lift a locomotive or a house with 1 psi, if the pressure is applied over a large enough area.


How many kg can one bar pressure lift?

This is a kind of trick question. In a closed static system containing fluid, pressure is equal everywhere. This is called the Law of Pascal. One can use this principle to lift a car with a finger. Fill a tank with water and have a car float on a platform. Now make a hole in the tank and connect a tube to it. By preventing the tube to leak, you have to apply a certain pressure, which may be smaller than 1 bar. If you increase the pressure, either by hand or possibly by blowing the tube, you can lift the car. Not so much with a short tube, but more with a long tube. The higher pressure in the tube will push the water back in the tank and cause the water in the tank to rise with the car on top of it.


How does a inclined plane makes work easier?

Like any simple machine, it spreads the work over a greater distance. For example, if you want to raise a load five feet, by using a 30° inclined plane, you spread the same work over ten feet, so only half as much force is needed.


How much pressure is required to lift one ton?

Assuming you need a metric ton, that's 1000 kilograms. To lift that, you need a FORCE of 9800 newtons. Force is related to pressure by: pressure = force / area, so the answer to the original question would depend, over what area the force is applied.


Is it possible to lift a 30 liter bottle of water and why?

30 litres of water weighs about 65 pounds, so a fit person should be able to lift it.
