10.34 metres
We know pressure exerted by a liquid column of height h, density p is
P=hxpxg.
The pressure exerted by the mercury column of height 76 cm.
Density of mercury = 13.6 g/cc = 1.36 x 104kg/m³.
Pmercury = 0.76 x 1.36 x 104 x 9.8 = 10.12
x 104 Nm-².
Let the height of the water column = hm. Density of water = 1g/cc= 10³ kg/m³.
Pwater = h x 103 x 9.8 = 9.8h x10³ Nm-².
Now put Pmercury = Pwater
9.8h * 10 ^ 3 = 10.12 * 10 ^ 4
h = 10.12/9.8 = 10.34 m.
Answer=10.34m
