A company has several sensors in storage silos to detect the total pressure in the silos to ensure the tanks will not leak. Each tank is designed to withstand a maximum total pressure of 5.7 atmospheres [atm]. An engineer wants to use one of the silos to store liquid nitric acid, which has a density of 97 pound-mass per cubic foot [lbm/ft3]. If the tank is filled to a depth of 90 feet [ft], how much surface pressure in units of atmospheres [atm] can be applied to the top of the liquid inside the tank without exceeding the maximum total pressure of the silo?
