This Pascal’s Principle practice problem falls in the Fluid Statics category of your Fluid Mechanics course, and is closely related to gage vs absolute pressure, the manometer equation and hydrostatic equation, and forces on submerged surfaces which are likely the topics you will cover next in your course.
