  • Why does a fountain pen leak at a high altitude?
    The pressure inside the pen is more than the outside atmospheric pressure

  • The normal atmospheric pressure is __________
    76 cm of Hg
  •  10
  • Convert 1 mm of Hg into Pascal. Take density of Hg = 13.6 X 10^3 kg m^-3 and g = 9.8 m/s^2
    133.28 Pa
