Hi....
____________________________
The pressure exerted by a liquid is small just under the surface of the liquid. But as we go we deeper in a liquid the pressure of liquid increases.As the depth of liquid increases the weight of liquid column pushing down from above increases and hence the pressure also increases.
____________________________
Pressure = density of the liquid ⨯ acceleration due to gravity ⨯ depth in the liquid So we can say that pressure in a liquid at a depth is directly proportional to the depth in the liquid.
