Core

1.8.1 Define pressure as force per unit area; recall and use the equation F p = A
1.8.2 Describe how pressure varies with force and area in the context of everyday examples
1.8.3 Describe, qualitatively, how the pressure beneath the surface of a liquid changes with depth and density of the liquid

Supplement

1.8.4 Recall and use the equation for the change in pressure beneath the surface of a liquid ∆ p = ρ g ∆ h
