Air is "pushed" into the open end of a barometer when the pressure is higher, meaning the Mercury closer to the closed end of the barometer - where the pressure is measured - will rise.
When air pressure increases, the mercury in a barometer rises.
The height of the Mercury column would decrease.
A barometer is used to measure air pressure. It measures the atmospheric pressure using air, mercury, or water and will be shown as inches of mercury or millibars.
The space above the mercury is airtight, there is no air above the mercury
mercury has a sudden fall and then the barometter measure it and when i mean by fall i mean air pressure so yeah it's cool I knoe it doesn't make sense but Im just writing this anyway. Even though it's pure glorius silly you know what. I PUT THAT WORD BUT THEY WON'T LET ME POST THIS STUPID ANSWER
When air pressure increases, the mercury in a barometer rises.
Yes, as air pressure increases, the height of the column of mercury in a barometer also increases. This is because the higher air pressure pushes down on the mercury in the barometer, causing the column to rise. Conversely, lower air pressure will cause the column of mercury to fall.
An increase in air pressure will cause the mercury in a barometer to rise, indicating higher atmospheric pressure. This typically indicates fair weather conditions.

To measure the local pressure of the Earth's atmosphere, Torricelli invented the first Mercury Barometer.
barometers with mercury measure air pressure. when the air pressure is high the mercury rises
Yes. (see - barometer)
The space above the mercury is airtight, there is no air above the mercury
at sea level to messure air.
there must be vacuum in the mercury barometer because if air enters the tube the barmeter would become faulty as air pressure will change.
