How much pressure does water increase in a water line going down hill?
GeanKearns
Pressure certainly does increase in a water line going down hill. This is because the weight of the water pulls it.

Why is your water pressure going down?
Hot or cold?
What happens to the pressure in a bottle of water if you press the stopper at the top down father?
The pressure will slightly increase.
Why does pressure increase under the sea?
Pressure increases because as you go further down, more water is above you being pulled down by gravity.
Does the pressure in the atmosphere increase or decrease?
Going farther up into air, pressure decreases. Going down, pressure increases. When you think about it, more air is pressing down on you when you are standing on earth because more is on top of you. When you are up in the air, there isn't as much air pressing on you which shows that there isn't as much pressure. The same concept applies when under water; The farther you go under, more water is pressing on you than when you are more towards the surface which=more pressure (underwater).
What happen to water pressure when the volume of water moving through a hose is reduced?
water pressure goes down because the force of the water going through the space decreases
Does pressure decrease or increase in the ocean?

What happens to the pressure in a bottle of water if you press the stopper at the top down farther?
If the stopper has an airtight seal, the pressure in the bottle will increase, with the same amount of air and water confined to a smaller area.

The toilet's water pressure keeps going up and down with each flush...why?
This depends how you are perceiving this "pressure going up and down" . I've repaired and replaced toilets for years and couldn't imagine how I'd gauge pressure doing this. Maybe you are mistaking pressure for flow rate and something is plugged up somewhere in your toilet.
Would adjusting your pressure reducer help with low water pressure in the house?
yes. loosen the locking nut, adjust the screw / bolt down to increase psi, out to decrease psi.
Why is your cold water pressure low but hot water pressure is fine?
Sounds like your main line coming in is small if it's 1/2 inch stepping it up to 3/4 coming in then down to 1/2 inch would increase your pressure
