Frequently Asked Questions
What is the hydrostatic pressure formula?
P = ρgh, where ρ is fluid density, g is gravitational acceleration (9.81 m/s²), and h is depth.
Does container shape matter?
No - hydrostatic pressure depends only on depth and fluid density, not on the shape or volume of the container.
Gauge vs absolute pressure?
Gauge = P from fluid only. Absolute = gauge + atmospheric (101,325 Pa). Most pressure gauges read gauge.
