TORRICELLPS VACUUM.
Experiment That Led to the Invention
Of the Barometer.

Experiment That Led to the Inventor
Of the Barometer.
The barometer was invented 10y Tor
ricelli. n pupil Of GaliIei. in 1913 In
attempting to pump water from very
deep well near Florence he found that
In spite Of all his efforts the liquid
would not rise higher III the pump
stock than thrly.two feet.
This set the young scientist to think
ing, and us he could not account for the
phenomenon In any other way he was
not slow In attrihuting 1t t. atmos
Dheric pressure He argued that water
would rise In Il vacuum only to such a
height NJ would render the downward
pressure or weight of the column of
water just equal to the atmospheric
pressure and, further. that should n
heavier linid be used the height OF the
column could be much reduced
TO prove this he selected Il glass tube
four feet long and after seating one
end filed it with mercury and then in.
verted 1t In basin containing Quan-
tity Of the same peculiar liquid. The
column In the tube quickly fell to n
height of nearly thirty inches above
tho mercury in the basin. leaving in
the top Of the tube a vacuum which Is
the most perfect that has ever been
obtained and which is to this day call

Its dlscovcrer.
