Pressure is the amountofforceperunit area actingperpendicular to asurface.
Pressure increases with increasing depthinfluids due to the weight of the fluid above exerting force on the surface below.
Pressure is the forceapplied per unit area.
The formula for calculatingpressure (P) at anypoint in aliquidorgas is P = F/A, where F is the forceapplied by the fluid and A is thecross-sectionalarea over which it acts.
