20 ft of head can be easily converted to psi by using the specific weight of water: 62.4 lb/ft3 and converting the units to inches.

20ft * 62.4lb/ft3 / 144in2/ft2 = 8.67 psi

What is the friction loss in 100feet of 5 inch fire hose?

It depends on flow. 2 PSI for 500 GPM 8 PSI for 1000 GPM 18 PSI for 1500 GPM 32 PSI for 2000 GPM This is per 100' ft If your flows are big, ie. defensive conditions, you must relay for anything over a couple hundred feet in length. Capt. Ridgeway Tumwater Fire

My well is making 50 gallons of water per minute How do I convert 50 gpm to PSI?

gpm and psi are two different measures that are not directly related, though a change in one will affect the other. To get the pressure at a certain point in your piping, you would need to measure it. Or, if you know that your pump is rated for 50 gpm at 80psi (1 foot water column = 2.31 psi) and your pump is lifting a column of water 15' (34.65 psi), then you should have about 45 psi residual. If you have long runs of horizontal pipe you may need to add some for pipe friction also.
