Please answer it . urgent
Dear student,
The denisty of mercury is 13.6 times the density of water.
dm = 13.6 dw
Atmospheric pressure P = h x d x g
Let the height upto which the mercury is raised be hm and the density of mercury be dm.
Let the height upto which the water will be raised be hw and the density of water be dw.
hm x dm x g =hw x dw x g
hm x dm = hw x dw
Thus, the water will raise to the height of 9.52 metres which makes it inconvenient to be used in barometer.
Regards
Given: The atmospheric pressure at one point is noted to be 70 cm of Hg.
70 cm= 0.70 mThe denisty of mercury is 13.6 times the density of water.
dm = 13.6 dw
Atmospheric pressure P = h x d x g
Let the height upto which the mercury is raised be hm and the density of mercury be dm.
Let the height upto which the water will be raised be hw and the density of water be dw.
hm x dm x g =hw x dw x g
hm x dm = hw x dw
Thus, the water will raise to the height of 9.52 metres which makes it inconvenient to be used in barometer.
