Depends on the height. You gain approximately 0.4 psi for every foot of elevation; so at 10 foot elevation you will have ~4 psi.

How can you calculate pressure exerted on a body by water under gravity in water tank?
i think it is 1/2 x area of the body x depth of water
What is the formula for absolute pressure?
but i think the absolute pressure is P(pressure)/{p(density)*g(gravity)}
20 cm of water equals how much pressure in kilopascals?
20 cm of water is about 1.96 kPa.
How much pressure would 11 inches of water column be?
.4 psi
What is the maximum depth a water spill will be on a flat surface?
Any, depending on the volume of water spilt and the area of the flat surface. The specific height is also constrained by the surface tension of the water, the atmospheric pressure above it, and the gravity below it.
Does gravity increase water pressure?
No
Why should water reservoir be built higher than the roof?
So that you will have water pressure from gravity.
What happens to water closest to the moon?
Water on the surface of the moon will rapidly turn to water vapor as there is no atmospheric pressure on the moon. The vapor will then escape the moon's gravity which is much weaker than the gravity on Earth.
In a rooftop water gravity tank what is the gravity pressure?
The gravity pressure in a rooftop water gravity tank is determined by the height of the water column above the outlet. This pressure is calculated using the formula P = ρgh, where P is the pressure, ρ is the density of water, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height of the water column.
Which fundamental force contributes to pressure in both water and the atmosphere?
The fundamental force that contributes to pressure in both water and the atmosphere is gravity. Gravity causes the weight of the water or air above a certain point to exert a force downwards, which leads to pressure at that point.
Gravity also makes water move. What makes water move?
Air pressure or water pressure makes water move.
Can you feed a hot water tank with a gravity fed water tank?
Yes, you will only have as much pressure as you do with the cold side, probably slightly less.
How does gravity affect the oceans?
Gravity will tend to pull the water down the "hill" or pile of water against the pressure gradient.
What moves water besides currents and electric charge?
gravity, water pressure, air pressure, buckets, etc.
Why water exerts pressure?
The same reason bricks exert downward pressure. Gravity.
What factors affect water potential?
Water potential is affected by factors such as pressure, solute concentration, and gravity. Pressure can increase water potential (positive pressure potential) while solute concentration and gravity can decrease it (negative solute and gravitational potential). Temperature can also influence water potential by affecting the kinetic energy of water molecules.
What are the forces acting on water tank?
The main forces acting on a water tank are gravity, buoyancy, and the pressure of the water inside the tank. Gravity pulls the water downward, creating pressure at the bottom of the tank. Buoyancy pushes upward on the tank walls, counteracting the force of gravity.
