How does the diameter of a column of water affect the pressure at the bottom of the column?

Yes and no, provided the pressure is kept constant, what appears to be more pressure is actually more volume. it appears to be more pressure, but it is an optical illusion, put a pressure gauge and be amazed.

Where can period be on the periodic table?
On the left side (the first 12 columns + the bottom four in the 13th column+the bottom two in the 14th column+the bottom one in the 15th column)
What is the pressure at the bottom of the ocean?
The pressure at the bottom of the ocean can be determined by the formula P = dgh, where d = 1025 kg per cubic meter, g is the acceleration due to gravity and h is the depth of the water in meters. At the bottom of the Marianas Trench (11034 meters), the pressure would be 1.11 E5 kPa, or 1095 times normal air pressure at sea level.
Does Water pressure increases as depth increases?
Yes, the deeper you are (be it in air, water or any medium) increases as you go deeper, as there is a column of mass pressing down on you, toward the centre of gravity for the earth. The pressure at sea level (average) is 1 bar, which is 100,000 kilopascals! (so, and inflated tire will have a pressure relative to that of 60 or so pascals. Tiny, eh?)
What factors affect the separation of substances in column chromatogaphy?
o0o
What does mm WC stand for when measuring flue pressure?
Mm/water column
One column of water has twice the diameter as another column of water. If the pressure is the same at the bottom of each column. How do the heights of the two columns compare?
The column with the smallest diameter has greater pressure and the column with a larger diameter has less pressure.
How much does pressure does a one half inch diameter column of water exert at its base?
The diameter of the water column does not affect the pressure.It is the height of the column that determines the pressure at the base.(and also the barometric pressure and temperature).
How does height affect fluid pressure?
As the depth of a fluid column increases, the pressure at the bottom increases due to the weight of the additional material above.j3h.
What will be the Water column Head in kg for 6 meter height and 8 meter dia tank?
Water column head is expressed either as the height of the column ... 6 meters here ... or else as the pressure at the bottom ... 58.842 kPa here. 'Kg' can't be a unit of water column head, and the diameter of the column is irrelevant.
What is the pressure at the bottom of a 20 ft column of oil?
.4psi
What is the height of a column of water where the pressure at the bottom of the column is 20.0 lb inch squared?
It is approx 46.3 feet.
Head pressure of water?
Head pressure is created by a column (depth) of water in a container. Pipe is considered a container. Diameter is not a factor. The higher the column of water, the more psi it creates. Multiply column height of water by .434 to get psi of water.
How does the pressure at the bottom of a 76-cm column of mercury in a barometer compare with the air pressure at the bottom of the atmosphere?
If the barometer is in the same place where you're measuring the air pressure, then they're exactly equal.
What would the pressure be in a liquid contained in a vertical tube sealed at the top with a submerged open bottom be?
It would be the same as the pressure in the liquid outside the tube at the open end- the deeper it is in the liquid, the higher the pressure.
How do you calculate water pressure at top if water pressure given at bottom?
Every 2.3077 feet of water in a column increases the water pressure at the bottom of the column by 1 pound per square inch.A 39 foot column of water with a pressure of 120 psi at the base will have a pressure exerted on its top surface of 103.1 psi.39 ft/ 2.3077 ft/1 psi = 16.9 psi ; 120 psi -16.9 psi = 103.1 psievery meter of water in a column increases the pressure at the base of the column by 0.1 kg./ sq. cm (or 1 kilopascal)A 12 meter column of water exerts a pressure at its base of 12 kPa. (or 1.2 kg/sq. cm)
How much head pressure lossin a 30 foot rise?
30ft rise = 13 psi (pressure is 13 psi higher at bottom of a 30ft column that at the top). Water Pressure = .433 psi per ft for a column of water at 62 degrees F.
Which column contains particles with a diameter of 0.4cm?
Column A: Small Pebbles
