Water has a weight. The more you stack up the more it weighs. There fore if you stack up 10 meters or 20 meters it makes a big difference.

What is the water pressure in psi at a depth of 300 feet?

At 300 feet of water depth the pressure is about 130 psi


Is the pressure at a depth of two feet in a large lake greater than the pressure at the same depth in a swimming pool?

No. The pressure depends on the depth, and on the density of the liquid, which is presumably more or less the same in this case.


What has more pressure on an object 260 feet depth of water or 35000 feet of altitude?

The 260 feet of water: at that depth, there is the weight of the water and the atmosphere on top of it.

What is the relationship between water depth and pressure?

Pressure and depth are related in that pressure is proportional to depth. The equation to find pressure at a certain depth is p=dgh, where p is the pressure, d is the density, g is the acceleration of gravity and h is the depth.


What is the water pressure at 406 meters deep in psi?

406 meters / 1,332.02 feet of water depth has a pressure of about 39.3 atmospheres or 577.6 psi.


How do you convert feet of air pressure to feet of water depth IE use a waterproof electronic altimeter to measure water depth?

I'm sorry, but your question is so poorly crafted, it's very hard to interpret. Are you asking what device could be used to measure water pressure and depth? Or are you looking for a way to convert feet of air to feet or inches of water? One foot of water (at 4 degrees Celsius) is equivalent to 816.2 feet of air (at 15 degrees C).
