उत्तर
Height of mercury column = h = 650 mm
h = 65 cm = 0.65 m
Density of mercury = ρ= 13600 kg/m3
Acceleration due to gravity = g = 10 ms−2
Pressure (P) = 650 mm of Hg = hρg
= 0.65 × 13600 × 10
= 88400 Pa

The following figure shows a manometer containing a liquid of density p. The limb P of the manometer is connected to a vessel V and the limb Q is open to atmosphere. The difference in the levels of liquid in the two limbs of the manometer is h as shown in the diagram. The atmospheric pressure is P0.

Consider a water tank shown in the figure. It has one wall at x = L and can be taken to be very wide in the z direction. When filled with a liquid of surface tension S and density ρ, the liquid surface makes angle θ(θ << 1) with the x-axis at x = L. If y(x) is the height of the surface then the equation for y(x) is:
(take θ(x) = sin θ(x) = tan θ(x) = `dy/dx`, g is the acceleration due to gravity)
