To calculate the water pressure from the elevation of a water column:
\[ P = 0.433 \times H \]
Where:
Water pressure elevation refers to the pressure exerted at the base of a column of water due to the height of the column. This pressure is generated by the force of gravity acting on the water, and it increases linearly with the height of the water column. The formula used to calculate this pressure is based on the density of water and the acceleration due to gravity.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ P = 0.433 \times 10 = 4.33 \]
The water pressure is 4.33 PSI.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ P = 0.433 \times 50 = 21.65 \]
The water pressure is 21.65 PSI.
