Welcome to PHY 121 Blog Help. Here's how it works. For each homework question and lab report we will make a post, this will probably contain a few tips on what the problems are about and how to solve them. If you are stuck on something then instead of emailing us directly you should post a comment in reply to the relevant post. We will try to guide you through tough points and help you understand the problems and the concepts behind them.

Did P = Patm + Density(Mercury)*g*(.1m) for height difference of 10 cm's... got 110000 and it's wrong?
Converted Patm to Pa of 101325, and used g for 9.8 and density of mercury of 13600 kg/m^2
try subtracting Density(Mercury)*g*(.1m) from Patm
Is pressure inside the box higher than atmospheric pressure? If yes what makes mercury to raise?
