As a storm front moves in, you notice that the column of mercury in a barometer rises to only 736 mm. a) what is the air pressure? b) If the mercury in this barometer is replaced with water, to what height does the column of water rise?

When a mercury manometer is connected to a gas main, the mercury stands 45.0 cm higher in the tube that is open to the air than in the tube connected to the gas main. A barometer at the same location reads 79.0 cm Hg. Determine the absolute pressure of the gas in cm Hg.

) The basic barometer can be used to measure the height of a building. If the barometric readings at the top and at the bottom of a building are 730 and 755 mmHg (mm of mercury with a density equal to 13,570 kg/m3) respectively, determine the height of the building. Assume an average air density of 1.18 kg/m3.
