1.

The pressure at a point in a liquid is proportional to the _______ of the liquid and the depth of the point.

  gravitational acceleration

  force

  area

  density

  Half-n-half Clue
 

2.

pressure - manometer
One arm of a glass U-tube is open to the atmosphere, whereas the other vertical arm is connected to a gas supply. The difference in levels of mercury (density = 13.6 g cm-3) between the vertical arms of the U-tube manometer is h = 2 cm. If the atmospheric pressure is 760 mm Hg and the gravitational acceleration is 9.8 m s-2, then the pressure of the gas is about
