Answer

${\Delta}P=1.90\times 10^4Pa$

Work Step by Step

The hydro static difference in blood pressure between brain and foot of a person can be calculated as: ${\Delta}P={\rho}gh$ We plug in the known values to obtain: ${\Delta}P=1.06\times 10^3\times 9.8\times 1.83$ ${\Delta}P=1.90\times 10^4Pa$
