    A brass scale of a barometer gives correct reading at \[0{}^\circ C.\] 0 The barometer reads 75 cm at \[27{}^\circ C.\] the atmospheric pressure at \[0{}^\circ C\]is

    A) 74.20 cm          

    B)        74.62 cm

    C) 74.92 cm          

    D)        75.04 cm

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] Suppose the correct barometer height at \[0{}^\circ C\]is \[{{\ell }_{0}}\], then             \[{{\ell }_{0}}+\Delta \ell =75\] \[\text{or}\,{{\ell }_{0}}+75\times ({{\alpha }_{Hg}}-{{\alpha }_{b}})\times 27=75\] or \[{{\ell }_{0}}+75\times (0.6\times {{10}^{-4}}-0.2\times {{10}^{-4}})\times 27=75\] \[\therefore \,\,\,\,{{\ell }_{0}}=74.92\,\,cm\]
