er liquid for part of it to remain in both legsof the tube. The preceding principle may be deduced by a very simple calculation.Let <^/and d be the densities of water and mercury, and // and // their re-spective heights, and let ^ be the acceleration due to gravity.

This is nothing more than analgebraical expression of the above principle ; for since the two productsmust always be equal, d must be as many times greater than da.s Ji is lessthan //. In this manner the density of a liquid may be…
