Question

Assuming the density of air to be 1.295 kg per m cube, find the fall in barometric height in mm of Hg at a height of 107 m above the sea level. Take density of mercury =13.6× 1000 kg per m cube. (I know how to solve this. But I need someone to explain me the process.)

Answer 1

Assuming the density of air to be 1.295 kg m", find the fall in barometric height in mm of Hg at a height of 107 m above the sea level. Take density of mercury = 13.6 x 103 kg m-3. Ans. 10 mm of Hg
