Formulas and Key Relations

2. Pressure Formula and Units

p = F/A

3. Pressure Due to a Liquid Column

p = p2 - p1 = hρg

P = P0 + ρgh

4. Pascal's Law and Hydraulic Machines

F2 = p × A2 = (F1/A1) × A2

p = hρg for pressure due to a liquid column.

For gravity neglected, p1 = p2.

Key relations

The relation is p = F/A.

The pressure difference between two points in a liquid separated vertically by height h is p = p2 - p1 = hρg.
