Torricell 's barometer used mercury . Pascal duplicated it using French wine of density 984kgm^(-3) . Determine the height of the wine column for nirmal atmospheric pressure. |

Answer» Solution :Normal atmosphetic pressure `P_(a)=1.03xx10^(5)` PA Suppose the height of French wine column is h and corresponding pressure P. `thereforeP=grhog` where `rho` = DENSITY of wine `=984kgm^(-3)` GIVE that `P.=P_(a)` `hrhog=P_(a)` `thereforeh=(P_(a))/(rhog)` `thereforeh=(P_(a))/(rhog)` `thereforeh=(1.013xx10^(5))/(984xx9.8)` `thereforeh=0.000105xx10^(5)` `thereforeh=10.5m` |
