Question
The atmosphere pressure can support mercury in a tube, which the upper end is closed, up to 0.76 meter. If the mercury is replaced by pure water in this case, what is the maximum height the atmosphere pressure can support the water in such kind a tube? (The density of mercury is about 13.6 times larger than that of water).

Answer:
Maximum height the atmosphere pressure can support the
water=10.336 m
Explanation:
We know that ,
Case 1 – Mercury in the tube
Case 2 – Water in the tube
Since atmospheric pressure is same
.
or,
∴
Hence height of the water column =10.336 m
