Which equation to use for hydrostatic pressure?
I actually wanted the answer in psi so I can compare it to P = 0.052 * ppg * h = 0.052 * 10 * 10 = 5.2 psi Edit: So 750/144 = 5.2 psi! Thank you so much. I still do not understand how we reached this conclusion! :D You kinda took me through it that I don't even understand what was wrong in...- morty92222

Which equation to use for hydrostatic pressure?
So 2.33 * 32.2 *10 = 750 [slug/(ft. sec2)] What kind of units is this?- morty92222

Which equation to use for hydrostatic pressure?
I am not sure how to use the slug in P=Rho g h as there is no mass in there!- morty92222

Which equation to use for hydrostatic pressure?
I never heard about "slug" in my entire life. After googling it, it appears to be 2.33 slug/ft3. But I don't have any feel for the unit or what it represents.- morty92222

Which equation to use for hydrostatic pressure?
So 10 ppg equals 74.8 lb/ft3. What should I use for g in the second equation (in terms of units)?- morty92222

Which equation to use for hydrostatic pressure?
Homework Statement h = 10 ft RHO = 10 ppg (or pounds/gallon) Homework Equations P = 0.052 * RHO * h P = RHO * G * h I am very confused right now as why each equation gives a different answer! What are the correct units for the 2nd equation and how do I convert from second equation to the...- morty92222
