37.
Pressure difference between two points in vessels, pipelines or in two different pipelines can be measured by a differential manometer. The pressure difference measured as the mm of water coloumn in case of mercury-water, differential manometer is equal to (where, H = difference in height of mercury column in mm).

760mmhg -~- 10340mmwc.
1mmhg -~- 13.6mmwc.

If one point takes A another point takes B the pressure difference is, Pa-Pb = (13.6-1)gH.
(1)

I agree @Ankita.

I think it is proportional to (density of Hg-density of water) /density of water.

As it is differential manometer.

No, it will be 13.6H.
