Flash Institute · Accepted Answer

Pressure at a depth h in a liquid of density ρ is h ρ g.
Pressure is the same in all directions about a point in a liquid.
Pressure at all points at the same depth is the same.
Pressure at a point inside a liquid is directly proportional to its depth.
The pressure of a liquid at a given depth is directly proportional to the density of the liquid.
