If water is not very compressible, how do I pressurize a water tank so that water will come out at 60 PSI?

I wonder why 2 upvotes above "needed" on such a trivial question. (leave a buffer of air, pump water until the air is at 60psi) – SF. Jan 11 at 10:49

Check out the other StackExchange sites. There are plenty of such 'trivial' questions. It may seem obvious to many of us, but maybe not so for someone starting out. The reasons these sites get popular is because they cater for the very beginner. – Caustix Mar 23 at 17:21

Similar to programmers.stackexchange.com/questions/164359/… – Andrew Sep 11 '12 at 5:26
True, although that answer is specific to programming--or at least software--and both verification and validation are terms of art within the field of systems engineering and applicable well beyond the relatively narrow confines of that field. – Adam Wuerl Sep 12 '12 at 3:39
