PRESSURE :
The force acting on unit area of a surface is called pressure.
PRESSURE = FORCE | AREA ON WHICH IT ACTS.
Pressure exerted by liquids or fluids :
Pressure exerted by fluids depends on the depth of the fluid. It changes with the depth of the liquid.
Activity :
Water fountains were due to the pressure exerted by water on the walls of the fountain pipes. It further depends upon the force which enters the pipe.
Pressure exerted by solids :
⭐ A solid surface exerts pressure.

The force applied on unit area is called pressure
pressure = force applied/ area
The SI or standard international unit of pressure is Pascal named after Blaise pascal
The pressure exerted by liquids is different , it is usually called the buoyant force and it depends upon the depth of water or the liquid
The pressure applied by solid is different it can be gravitational force or frictional force and it depends upon the area on which it acts
hope u get it
