Suppose water is used in a barometer instead of mercury. If the barometric pressure is 760 mm Hg , what is the height of the water column in the barometer at 0^(@) C . The densities of water and mercury at 0^(@) C are 0.99987 g cm^(-3) and 13.596 g cm^(-3) , respectively. Strategy : The prtessure exerted by a column of liquid h whose density is d is hdg . Because the pressure are equal , we can equate the expressions for water (W) and mercury (M): h_(W)d_(W)g = h_(M) d_(M)g or h_(W)d_(W) = h_(M)d_(M) Rearranging gives (h_(W))/(h_(M)) = (d_(M))/(d_(W)) This implies that the height of the liquid column in inversely proportional to its density . Solve the equation to find the height of the water column, h_(W) .
