more water is on top of it putting more weight on the water at the bottom

Where is fluid pressure greatest?
at the ocean and going deeper into it
Where will you experience greater pressure swimming in the sea or in the pool at the same depth?
Salt water is more dense than fresh water. The added density adds pressure, so the pressure will be greater at the same depth in salt water. This is also the cause of the increase of buoyancy in saltwater.
Would you feel more pressure 5 m underwater in a pool or 2 m underwater in the lake?
Under 5 m of water the pressure will be greater than under 2 m of water. The shape of the body of water is irrelevant.
How would you floor of the swimming pool appear from the top of the pool?
same as the bottom
Is pressure lower at the bottom of a dam?
Density of water per unit volume ie. g/cm3 * depth of water (cm). Answer will be in g/sq cm. Density of water is approximately 1g / cm3 therefore pressure at the bottom of a dam wall with 1m of water = 0.1kg / sq cm. Note: this is only valid at the bottom of the wall, half way up the 1m of water the pressure would be 0.05kg / sq cm. At the very surface of the water, there would be no pressure. Thats why a finger in a dyke (dike) can hold back the North Sea!
Why is water pressure greater at the bottom of the deep end of a pool?
The water pressure is greater at the deep end of a pool because there is more water on top of that which adds to the pressure. If there is more water, the pressure wil be higher because there is more water to put weight on it.
What is the pressure of water at the bottom of a swimming pool that is 1.8m deep?
About 17psi at 1.8m
Why is there more pressure at the bottom of the pool than at the top?
More water on TOP of you.
Where wil you experience greater pressure swimming pool or swimming at the sea with the same depth?
At the same depth the pressure is greater at sea because salt water is denser than fresh water.
How does atmosphere pressure with height in the atmosphere?
Generally, atmospheric pressure is greatest at ground level, because you are at the bottom of the 25 mile thick atmosphere of earth. Greatest water pressure in a swimming pool is at the bottom, too. As you go up into the atmosphere, the pressure tends to decrease.
What would cause a lump at the bottom of a fiberglass pool?
The most likely cause is hydrostatic pressure from underground water. This can be a very dangerous problem for the pool and I would contact the installer immediately for an onsite consultation. If it is hydrostatic pressure and is not relieved, the pool can be permanently damaged. thepoolandspawarehouse.com

Will your body temperature affect the temperature of water in a pool?
Yes,ower body can effect the water in a pool
How will a person feel liquid pressure as she goes at different depths in a swimming pool?
the deeper she goes there is more weight above her thus greater pressure which results to pain in the eardrums
Should there be a gap between the liner and pool bottom and side on a new inground pool?
There may be small gaps at the corners. Once water is put in the pool, the pressure will stretch the liner to fill these gaps. Since the water fill from the bottom upwards, any air "trapped" on the bottom will be forced out the top as well when the pool is filled. The water is in the pool, liner is rounded in the corners and their is approximately 1" space between the liner and bottom/side corner of the pool bottom.

Salt water is more dense than fresh water. The added density adds pressure, so the pressure will be greater at the same depth in salt water. This is also the cause of the increase of buoyancy in saltwater.
Where is the coldest water in a swimmming pool?
At the bottom of the pool.
