1.a. The barometer is a device to measure atmospheric pressure. If you plan to make a barometer by using a specialliquid that has density C kg/m³, what will be expected device height? Take atmospheric pressure 1.01x105N/m²b. If your volume is B liters, what is the buoyant force acting on you if you are inside the water. Takedensity of water as 1000 kg/m³.c.A container has a vertical tube, connected to it at its side, as shown in the figure. A liquid of density C+500kg/m³reaches level X in the container and level Y in the tube. Level X being 8.0 cm higher than level Y. Thetube has unknown oil to a D cm high, between levels Y and Z, Calculate the density of the unknown liquid.XZYB: 27C:127D:9.0

The same fluid (density unknown) fills three depressions on an alien planet. Depression #1 is a small pond. Depression #2 is a large lake. Depression #3 is a very large ocean. All of these depressions have the same depth. Gravity g is the same at all three locations. However the value of gravity is unknown. How do the gauge pressures at the bottoms of the three depressions compare? A. P3 > P2 > P1 B. They are the same C. P1 > P2 > P3 D. Can't tell without knowing the dimensions of the depressions.
