in liquids if the depth is more the pressure will also be greater

depth is the amount of water above

the pressure in liquids is different at different depths. pressure increases as the depth increases. The pressure in a liquid is due to the weight of the column of water above. Since the particles in a liquid are tightly packed, this pressure acts in all directions, For example the pressure acting on a dam at the bottom of the reservoir is greater than the pressure acting near the top. This is why dam walls are usually wedged shaped
