What is the effect of pressure on the boiling point of water?

An open $U$-tube contains mercury. When $13.6 \,cm$ of water is poured into one of the arms of the tube,then the mercury rise in the other arm from its initial level is ....... $cm$

$A$ beaker containing a liquid is kept inside a big closed jar. If the air inside the jar is continuously pumped out,the pressure in the liquid near the bottom of the liquid will

Mountaineers suffer from nose bleeding (epistaxis) at higher altitudes. Explain.

The Sun is a hot plasma (ionized matter) with its inner core at a temperature exceeding $10^{7} \; K$,and its outer surface at a temperature of about $6000 \; K$. At these high temperatures,no substance remains in a solid or liquid phase. In what range do you expect the mass density of the Sun to be,in the range of densities of solids and liquids or gases? Check if your guess is correct from the following data: mass of the Sun $= 2.0 \times 10^{30} \; kg$,radius of the Sun $= 7.0 \times 10^{8} \; m$.

$A$ tube is bent into an $L$ shape and kept in a vertical plane. If these three liquids are kept in equilibrium by the piston of area $A$,the value of $\frac{F}{A}$ is:
