The top and bottom liquids stand to a height of h₁ = 2.66-ft and h2= 5.44-ft, respectively. h₂ Air Pressure a. What is the height of the middle liquid, in ft? b. What is the pressure, in psi, at the mid-height of the middle liquid? C. What is the equivalent height of glycerol, in ft, that can be substituted to the three liquids that will give the same pressure at the bottom of the container, assuming the air pressure is held constant? The density of glycerol is 1.23-g/cc.
