An outdoor, rectangular pool on campus is 4.5 meters [m] in width and 8.0 meters [m] in length. You may assume the depth of the pool is constant. If the pool is filled with pure water, the total pressure probe at the bottom of the pool reads 17.5 pound-force per square inch [psi]. What is the volume of the water in the pool in units of kiloliters [kL]?
