One arm of a glass U-tube is open to the atmosphere, whereas the other vertical arm is connected to a gas supply. The difference in levels of mercury (density = 13.6 g cm-3) between the vertical arms of the U-tube manometer is h = 3 cm. If the atmospheric pressure is 760 mm Hg and the gravitational acceleration is 9.8 m s-2, Calculate the pressure of the gas ?

It is better to use a sharp tripped nail than a blunt nail because
The tip with the smallest area will produce a higher pressure when a small force is applied
A sharp tipped nail needs a larger force to drive it into the wooden surface
The sharp tip saves cost as less raw materials are required to make such nails
The sharp tip has a spiralling effect when the nail is hit on the head
The pressure exerted by a body is 8650 Pa when it is placed on a wooden plank.If the area of contact is 2500cm2,find the weight of the body ?
