→The height of mercury column in a barometer in a Calcutta laboratory was recorded to be 75cm. Calculate this pressure in SI and CGS units using the following data: Specific gravity of mercury $=13.6$, Density of water $=10^3 \mathrm{~kg} / \mathrm{m}^3, \mathrm{~g}=9.8 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2$ at Calcutta. Pressure = $\text{h}\rho\text{g}$ in usual symbols.
