By sucking through a straw,a student can reduce the pressure in his lungs to $750\, mm$ of $Hg$ (density $= 13.6\, g/cm^3$). Using the straw,he can drink water from a glass up to a maximum depth of ....... $cm$.

In a cylindrical container open to the atmosphere from the top,a liquid is filled up to a $10\, m$ depth. The density of the liquid varies with depth $h$ from the surface as $\rho(h) = 100 + 6h^2$,where $h$ is in meters and $\rho$ is in $kg/m^3$. The pressure at the bottom of the container will be: (Atmospheric pressure $P_0 = 10^5\, Pa$,$g = 10\, m/s^2$)
