PROBLEM 4: The basic barometer can be used to measure the height of a Spoints building. If the barometric readings at the top and at the bottom of a building are 730 and 755 mmHg, respectively, determine the height of the building. Assume an average air density of 1.18 kg/m"3 and SG of Hg - 13.55. Ptop = 730 mmHg h = ? Piot 755 mmHg Yout answer
