โ 14y ago2.31 feet of water depth exerts a presssure of one pound per square inch.
A column of water 10 ft high exerts 4.33 PSI (static pressure)
To prove take 4.33 times it by 2.31 = 10.00 ft

โ 14y agoThe ratio of feet in the air to pounds per square inch of water pressure at the use point in a gravity water system is approximately 2.31 feet of elevation for every 1 psi of pressure. This ratio is based on the general relationship between water height (feet) and pressure (psi) due to gravity.
The units of pressure in this system would be pounds per square foot (lb/ftยฒ).
Among other things, it may refer to a non-standard (non-SI) unit of pressure, "pounds per square inch".Psi is a Greek letter in the Greek alphabet (uppercase Ψ) (lowercase ψ).When it is used in mathematical form it is called The Reciprocal Fibonacci Constant (Fibonacci discovered it) and it equals approximately 3.35988566243177553172011302918927...
A gravity plumbing system relies on the natural force of gravity to move wastewater from the fixtures to a sewer or septic system. When wastewater leaves a fixture, it flows through pipes sloped downward towards the main sewer line. The force of gravity pulls the wastewater down the pipes, allowing it to flow freely towards its destination without the need for mechanical assistance.
The discharge pressure of a CO2 system typically ranges from 850 to 1050 psi (pounds per square inch) depending on the specific design and application. It is important to follow manufacturer guidelines and regulations when operating a CO2 system to ensure safety and optimal performance.
Specific gravity affects head pressure in a pump system by changing the weight of the fluid being pumped. A higher specific gravity means the fluid is denser and heavier, resulting in higher head pressure needed to overcome the increased resistance of the fluid. Conversely, a lower specific gravity would require less head pressure.
The units of pressure in this system would be pounds per square foot (lb/ftยฒ).
It is a British unit of pressure based on the foot-pound-sec British system of units.

The full form of lbs with regards to pressure is pounds per square inch (psi).
Pressure is measured in pascal, which is the pressure of 1 newton over 1 square meter. (A newton is the amount of force needed to accelerate 1 kilogram by 1 meter per second per second. In the English system, pressure is measured in pounds per square inch. A pound per square inch is equal to about 6,890 pascal.
