>>>p=rho x g x h where rho = density of fluid and h is height of fluid. If rho, g, or h change, the pressure changes

Math isn't my nearest friend, and sunday math less so, is atmospheric pressure in there, and does it make any difference?

atmospheric pressure will be working the same on both ends unless you have a very long pipe with one end in a high pressure area and the other in a low. think of the water height inside the eye of a cyclone for instance.

In answer to the question, the total force for any defined area X is the same for both examples.

Like to pretend to come to these things independently, that I missed the train and walked lets me time to enjoy the view.

Yes as far as I know. A storm surge is created from a very low pressure therefore the higher pressure around it will be drawn into the low pressure area and increase the height of the ocean.

A 10kpa pressure differance will increase the height by 1 metre.

I weigh about 1006 Newtons.
Or rather, your feet press the ground with a total of 1006 N force.


....waits for consequences of contradicting MWF...

Supposing gravity is equal everywhere on earth (which it is not) how much would centripetal force at the equator reduce your effective weight compared with at the poles?
