Answer

As we know,

Pressure = h ρ g

Given,

ρ = 13.6 103 kg m-3

g = 9.8 m s -2

h = 1 mm = 0.001 m (As 1 m = 1000 mm = 0.001 mm)

Substituting the values in the formula above we get,

P=(0.001)×(13.6×103)×(9.8)P=133.28 PaP = (0.001) \times (13.6 \times 10^{3}) \times (9.8) \\[0.5em] \Rightarrow P = 133.28 \text{ Pa} \\[0.5em]

Hence, 1 mm of Hg = 133.28 Pa
