Serway & Jewett — Fluid Mechanics: Problem 9
Blaise Pascal duplicated Torricelli’s barometer using a red Bordeaux wine, of density \( 984 \text{ kg/m}^3 \), as the working liquid (Fig. P14.9). (a) What was the height \( h \) of the wine column for normal atmospheric pressure? (b) Would you expect the vacuum above the column to be as good as for mercury?
