10.3m of H2O = 76Cm of hg.
1 m of H2O = 7.378.
So the answer is B.

Syam said:   8 years ago
Here it is 7.4m of Vaccum pressure and 2.5m of absolute pressure for water.

10.3m of H2O = 76Cm of hg.
1 m of H2O = 7.378.

So, the answer is B.

1mof h2o 76/10.3 = 7.4.

Pratik said:   7 years ago
It is 2.3 to 2.7.

Archana said:   7 years ago
It is -7.6 or 10.3 - 7.6 = 2.7m of water.

For water absolute = 2.5.
For water vacuum = 7.8.
Here it is asked for vacuum. Hence the answer is 7.8.

7.4m is 100% correct.

Chandan said:   6 years ago
It is also less then the atmospheric pressure.
