10. Everyone knows that the surface of the planet Venus is hot enough to melt lead. So an adventurous student sets up a Torricelli closed-tube barometer on the surface of

Venus using molten lead, which has density p = 10500 kg/m³. The atmospheric pressure is P = 9.3 × 10° Pa, and the acceleration due to gravity there is g =8.87 m/s² (not 9.8!). How high (h) does the molten lead rise inside the closed tube? (а) 1.00 m (c) 90.1 m (b) 10.8 m (d) 99.9 m
