Homework Statement
Hi I'm having trouble solving this physics problem if anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated !
Static pressure problem: A bathtub contains water to a depth of 20 inches. Determine the pressure at the bottom of the bathtub in both [psia] and [psig] (a being absolute pressure and g being gauge pressure)
Homework Equations
im using P=pgh
The Attempt at a Solution
what I've tried doing was to find gauge pressure first: P=pgh=(1.94slug/ft^3)(32.2ft/s^2)(1.67ft). I got the 1.67 feet from converting 20 inches to feet. the answer i get is 104.11slug/s^2 but they want it in psi or lb/in^2 and i am having trouble converting these units =[
