Liquid pressure is the amount of force exerted by a liquid on its surrounding container or objects within it.
Liquid pressure can be calculated by dividing the force exerted by the liquid by the area over which it is exerted. The formula is P = F/A, where P is the pressure, F is the force, and A is the area.
The factors that affect liquid pressure include the depth of the liquid, the density of the liquid, and the acceleration due to gravity. The pressure also increases with depth and density.
Liquid pressure is the force exerted by a liquid, while atmospheric pressure is the force exerted by the atmosphere. Liquid pressure increases with depth, while atmospheric pressure decreases with altitude.
Liquid pressure is used in various applications such as hydraulic systems, plumbing, and scuba diving. It is also used in measuring devices like barometers and manometers.
