The pressure at half the depth of a lake is $2/3$ of the pressure at its bottom. What is the depth of the lake in $m$?

Consider the wall of a dam to be straight with height $H$ and length $L$. It holds a lake of water of height $h$ $(h < H)$ on one side. Let the density of water be $\rho_w$. Denote the torque about the axis along the bottom length of the wall by $\tau_1$. Denote also a similar torque due to the water up to height $h/2$ and wall length $L/2$ by $\tau_2$. Then $\tau_1 / \tau_2$ (ignore atmospheric pressure) is

$A$ barometer is kept in an elevator accelerating upwards with an acceleration $a$. Find the most likely pressure inside the elevator.

The heights of mercury in a barometer at the base and at the top of a mountain are $75 \, cm$ and $50 \, cm$,respectively. If the ratio of the density of mercury to the density of air is $10^4$,what is the height of the mountain?

The height of a mercury barometer is $75 \ cm$ at sea level and $50 \ cm$ at the top of a hill. The ratio of the density of mercury to that of air is $10^4$. The height of the hill is ....... $km$.

The value of $g$ at a place decreases by $2\%$. The barometric height of mercury:
