A barometer is used to measure atmospheric pressure and is filled with a high-density fluid. The pressure P measured by the barometer is the height of the fluid column, h, times the density of the liquid , times the acceleration due to gravity g, or

=

Find the height to which the liquid column will rise for pressures from 0 to 100 kPa for two different barometers. Assume that the first uses mercury, with a density of 13.56 g/cm3 and the second uses water with a density of 1.0 g/cm3 . The acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s2 . Your answer should be in a two dimensional matrix.
