Calculate the atmospheric pressure
measured by the barometer for a
given density of mercury as 13590
kg/m3.
Answers
Answer:
Density of mercury = 13600 kg per m cube
Relative density = density of mercury ÷ density of water
Relative density = 13600 ÷1000
Therefore relative density = 13.6
Explanation:
The density of mercury,
We need to find the relative density.
Since, the density of water is 1000 kg/m³. So, relative density is given by :
RD = 13.6
So, the relative density is 13.6. Hence, this is the required solution.
According to the question, the column of mercury in a biometer is 76 mm of Hg, now we have to calculate the atmospheric pressure if the density of mercury = 13600 kg/m^3
From the question, we know that pressure= h×d×g
where h=hight of the Mercury in the barometer
d= density of the mercury
g= acceleration due to gravity
and given p= 13.6×10^3 kg/m^3
g= 10 m/s^2
h=76cm=0.76 m
so the atmospheric pressure would be
p= 0.76×3.6×10^3×10
= 1.03×10^5
Hope This Answer Helps you to Gain Knowledge
Explanation:
Destiny of Mercury=13590 by per metre cube
Realative distiny=destiny of Mercury divided by
Destin y of water
Relative destiny=13590 divided by 1000
Realative distiny= 13.6
______________________________________
The destiny of mercury
We need to find the realative destiny
the Destiny of water is 1000 kg/m 3
RD====13.6
realative destiny is 13.6
the colum of the Mercury biometer is 76mm
we know that H×D×G
h=hight of the volume
d=destiny of the volume
g=accreation due to gravity
g=10m/s
h=76cm=0.76m
....it would be
p=0.76×3.6×10^3×10
...1.03×10^5
