What is the height of a fluid column in a barometer that uses water as its fluid in 0.810 atm of air pressure? The density of water is 1000 kg/m3. Neglect the vapor pressure in the apparently empty space above the column. Use ????=9.80 m/s2 and give the height in meters.

Answer:

8.735 meters is the height of a fluid column in a barometer.

Explanation:

[tex]P=\rho \times g\times h[/tex]

Where:

P = pressure of the fluid at h height of depth

[tex]\rho [/tex] = Density of the fluid

g = acceleration due to gravity

According to question weh ave ;

P =0.810 atm = 0.810 ×101325 Pa  = 82,073.25 Pa

(1 atm=101325 pa)

h = ?

g = [tex]9.8 m/s^2[/tex]

[tex]\rho =1000 kg/m^3[/tex]

[tex]h=\frac{p}{\rho g}=\frac{82,073.25 Pa}{1000 kg/m^3\times 9.8 m/s^2}[/tex]

[tex]h=8.375 m[/tex]

8.735 meters is the height of a fluid column in a barometer.
