Hydrostatic Pressure

The pressure in the liquid depends on the density and depth. With the force of gravity causes all objects on earth has weight. Heavy objects will be pressing on the field of press, as well as liquid substances in a quiet place. Hydrostatic pressure is the pressure in the liquid caused by the weight of the liquid itself.
Hydrostatic pressure is influenced by: The depth, density of the liquid, and not influenced by the shape of the vessel.

Definition of Pressure

Pressure is the force exerted on a unit area.
power is a pull or push that can cause objects to change shape and motion. So the pressure is a push or pull acting on the field per unit area.
a. The properties of pressure:
--- Pressure is directly proportional to the compressive force, meaning that the greater the pressure the greater the compressive force is generated.
--- Pressure is inversely proportional to the wide field, meaning that the smaller the wide field, the greater the pressure generated or otherwise.
Mathematically formulated pressure:
P = F / A
Description:
P = pressure unit pascal (Pa)
F = compressive force units (newtons)
A = area press area (m ^ 2)

of the formula can be seen that the pressure is the amount of force exerted (F) divided by broad field of press (A).
Units of pressure include: Pascal or N / m ^ 2 in cgs units dyne / cm ^ 2.
