A colleague of yours takes a bunch of pressure readings while you are gone. You return to realize that he has invented a new unit: his body mass of 180lb per 1mile?. He calls this unit Bob per Bob's Block. 1mile = 63360 inches. What is the pressure of 9 Bobs per Bob's block in a real unit of pressure, pounds per square inch (PSI)? Use just one sig fig in your answer: x10^ PSI
