Indicate whether the statement is true or false
Atmospheric pressure is the weight of the column of air over an area. For example, under standard conditions, the atmospheric pressure is 14.7 lbf/in.2 . This value means that the column of air in the atmosphere above a surface with an area of 1 in.2 will exert a force of 14.7 lbf. Convert the atmospheric pressure in the given units to the requested units: (a) 14.7 lbf/in.2 to lbf/ft2 , (b) 14.7 lbf/in.2 to Pa, (c) 14.7 lbf/in.2 to kPa, and (d) 14.7 lbf/in.2 to bars. Show all of the conversion steps. [Note: One Pascal (1 Pa) is equal to one newton per meter squared (1 Pa = 1 N/m2 ) and 1 bar = 100 kPa.]
