A barometer contains two uniform capillaires of radii `1.44xx10^(-3)m` and `7.2xx10^(-3)N//m` and `g=9.8m//s^(2)`.

Verified by Experts

If `P_(1)` and `P_(2)` are the pressures in the broader and narrower tubes of radii `r_(1)` and `r_(2)` respectively, the pressure just below the meniscus in the respective tubes will be `P_(1)-(2T)/(r_(1)) and P_(2)-(2T)/(r_(2))`
So that `[P_(1)-(2T)/(r_(1))]-[P_(2)-(2T)/(r_(2))]=hrhog or P_(1)-P_(2)=hrhog-2T[(1)/(r_(2))-(1)/(r_(1))]`
`P_(1)-P_(2)=0.2xx10^(3)xx9.8-2xx72xx10^(-3)[(1)/(7.2xx10^(-4))-(1)/(14xx10^(-4))]=1960-97=1863Pa`
