Pressure in Liquids
The pressure, P, for an object in a liquid can be calculated using the formula
P = h⍴g
where
h = height of the liquid above the object (unit: m)
⍴ = density of the liquid (unit: kgm-3)
g = acceleration due to gravity (unit: ms-2)
Note: the unit for Pressure is Newton per meter squared (Nm-2) or Pascal (Pa).

Tekanan, P, bagi sesuatu objek dalam cecair boleh dihitung menggunakan formula
P = h⍴g
di mana
h = tinggi cecair di atas objek (unit: m)
⍴ = ketumpatan cecair (unit: kgm-3)
g = pecutan disebabkan oleh tarikan graviti (unit: ms-2)
Catatan: unit bagi tekanan ialah Newton per meter kuasa dua (Nm-2) atau Pascal (Pa).
