(N/A) The pressure $P$ at a depth $h$ below the surface of a liquid of density $\rho$ is given by the formula:
$P = P_a + \rho gh$
Where:
$P_a$ is the atmospheric pressure at the surface of the liquid.
$\rho$ is the density of the liquid.
$g$ is the acceleration due to gravity.
$h$ is the depth of the point from the liquid surface.
