Will the height of mercury in a barometer change when the radius of barometer is changed?

here's your answer mate-:
____________________
NO THE HEIGHT WILL NOT CHANGE IF WE CHANGE THE RADIUS OF BAROMETER BECAUSE IT DOESN'T FACTOR THE EQUATION
IT MAINLY DEPENDS UPON
The force of gravity pulling the mercury downwardThe vacuum at the top of the tube, which equalizes the force of gravityThe atmospheric pressure on the mercury in the basin, which pushes down on the mercury in the basin and lifts the mercury in the tube

Barometer, device used to measure atmospheric pressure. Because atmospheric pressure changes with distance above or below sea level, a barometer can also be used to measure altitude. There are two main types of barometers: mercury and aneroid.
In the mercury barometer, atmospheric pressure balances a column of mercury, the height of which can be precisely measured. To increase their accuracy, mercury barometers are often corrected for ambient temperature and the local value of gravity. Common pressureunits include pounds per squareinch; dynes per square centimetre; newtons per square metre (the SIunit called the pascal); inches, centimetres, or millimetres of mercury; and millibars (1 millibarequals 1,000 dynes per square centimetre, 100 pascals, or 0.75 millimetre of mercury). Atmospheric pressure at sea level is about 14.7 pounds per square inch, equivalent to 30 inches (760 millimetres) of mercury, 1,013.2 millibars, or 101,320 pascals.
Of the many different varieties of mercury barometers, most variations arise from different techniques for measuring the height of the mercury column. Though other liquids can be used in a barometer, mercury is the most common. Its density allows the vertical column of the barometer to be of manageable size. If water were used, for instance, the column would have to be 34 feet high.
