In a pipe line the pressure of gas is measured with a mercury manometer having one limb open to the atmosphere (as shown in figure). If the difference in the height of mercury in the two limbs is 550 mm, calculate the gas pressure. Given : Barometer reading = 761 mm of Hg Acceleration due to gravity = 9.79 m/s2 Density of mercury = 13640 kg/m3.
