Reference no: EM13196682

A closed end manometer was constructed from a U-shaped glass tube which was 80.0 cm high. It was loaded with mercury so that the closed side was filled all the way to the top (80.0 cm above the neck) while the open end was at a level 18.0 cm above the neck. It was taken into a chamber used for training astronauts. What is the highest pressure, in torr, that can be read on this manometer?
a. 62.0 torr
b. 62.5 torr
c. 98.0 torr
d. 98.5 torr
e. 620 torr
