19. Fluid Mechanics

A classic barometer (shown below) is built with a 1.0-m tall glass tube and filled with mercury (13,600 kg/m³). Calculate the atmospheric pressure, in ATM, surrounding the barometer if the column of liquid is 76 cm high. (Use g=9.8 m/s².)

(II) A house at the bottom of a hill is fed by a full tank of water 6.0 m deep and connected to the house by a pipe that is 75 m long at an angle of 61° from the horizontal (Fig. 13–53).

(b) How high could the water shoot if it came vertically out of a broken pipe in front of the house?
