In one observation, the column in a mercury barometer (as is shown in Fig. 14-5a) has a measured height h of 740.35 mm. The temperature is 5.0 C, at which temperature the density of mercury r is 1.3608 104 kg/m3 .The free-fall acceleration g at the site of the barom4 eter is 9.7835 m/s2. What is the atmospheric pressure at that site in pascals and in torr (which is the common unit for barometer readings)?
