To calculate head pressure in psi from a head height given in feet you multiply by 0.434.
15 x 0.434 = 6.51 psi

How does the water level effect the pump?
The further any Pump has to lift or push water to get it to the surface the less pressure it will be able to make as an end result. More horsepower and Impellers are required as the depth to water increases.
1 psi will lift water how many feet?
2.31
How much weight kg can you lift with 1 psi of water pressure?
You can lift a locomotive or a house with 1 psi, if the pressure is applied over a large enough area.
How much water does it take to lift a car?
That depends on the water pressure and the surface area that the water is pushing against.
How many feet of moving water is enough to lift up a car and carry it away?
It generally takes 2 feet of water to lift/move/carry a vehicle. Be safe- Turn Around, Don't Drown!
Why is it easier to pull a submerged boat anchor to the surface than it is to lift onto the boat?
because the water pressure takes up some of the weight as you lift it in the water
Is finding out if water pressure can lift up a car a good science fair project?
yep
How much pressure is required to lift one ton?
Assuming you need a metric ton, that's 1000 kilograms. To lift that, you need a FORCE of 9800 newtons. Force is related to pressure by: pressure = force / area, so the answer to the original question would depend, over what area the force is applied.
How deep in water is 3atm of pressure?
One atmosphere is the amount of pressure that can lift water approximately 10.3 meters.Considering that a diver already experiences 1 ATM of pressure in air, the water depth in meters d, at which the diver would experience n ATM of pressure, isd = (n - 1) * 10.3Hence, to experience 3 atmospheres of pressure, you'd need to go ((3-1) * 10.3) = 20.6 meters (67.6 feet) underwater.
How high can you lift water in a vacuum?
Roughly 16 inches before the surface starts to boil from the vacuum, this is also assuming 33 degree water, the higher the water temp the less lift will be achieved due to water's vapor pressure.
How many horse power is required to lift a load of 600 pounds 12 feet high in 5 second?
Approx 2.62 hp
How much air pressure does it require to lift a car?
Any air pressure is sufficient, if you have enough area with that pressure applied. Foe example, you could lift a 10000 pound truck with 10000 psi, if you have one square inch being acted on; you could do it with 1 psi, if you had 69.5 square feet being acted on.
