Absolute pressure P as a function of depth h.
Absolute pressure P as a function of depth h.
A student performs an experiment to measure the absolute pressure \(P\) in an open-top container filled with an incompressible liquid. The student records the pressure at several different depths \(h\) below the surface and creates a graph of \(P\) as a function of \(h\).

Which of the following correctly identifies the physical significance of the slope and the vertical intercept of the resulting linear graph?
