Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The given open ended manometer has to be redrawn to show what it looks like when the stopcock is opened.

Concept Introduction:

$\text{Pressure}\text{=}\frac{\text{Force}}{\text{Area}}$

Pressure can be expressed in different units. But it is normally reported in $\text{mm}\text{Hg}\left(\text{millimeters}\text{of}\text{mercury}\right)$

General unit conversions:

$1atm$ is equal to $760mmHg$

$1pascal$ is equal to $1newton/mete{r}^2$

$1bar$ is equal to $1\times 10^{5}pascal$
