You have two closed water tanks. One tank is taller that allow pressure to build up from the shear weight of the fluid. And the other is a lot shorter that is pressurized. If the pressure on the bottom of the tall tank was 5 psi and the pressure in the small tank was 5 psi. Would they both exert the same force? Or would the small tank have a stronger force on account of the tank being lower volume and have a high pressure.
