Evangelista Torricelli, Italian physicist, inventing the mercury barometer, 1643 (1873)
Evangelista Torricelli, Italian physicist and mathematician, inventing the mercury barometer, 1643 (1873). Torricelli (1608-1647) demonstrated that liquid will rise in a tube unless the weight of the column of liquid is equal to the pressure of the air pressing on an equal section of the reservoir of liquid. The height of a column will depend on the density of the liquid used. Thus a column of water would be 9.75m (32 feet), while that of mercury which is approximately 13.5 times denser, would be.736m (29 ins). From The Atmosphere, by Camille Flammarion. (London 1873)
