Gravity is not a pressure.

The acceleration of gravity on the surface of Earth is 9.8 meters (32.2 feet) per second2 .

Gravity can certainly produce pressure in a fluid, but the magnitude of the pressure

depends on what sort of substance the fluid comprises.

The pressure of the atmosphere ... due to gravity ... is about 14.6 pounds per

square inch.

The pressure has somewhat greater magnitude if the fluid happens to be water,

molasses, Mercury, etc.
