What is a tall column of water and steam erupting from earth's surface called?

A tall column of water and steam erupting from Earth's surface is called a geyser. This phenomenon is typically caused by underground water that is heated by magma and then expelled through a vent in the Earth's crust.


A decrease in the height of a column in a mercury barometer means that?

there is a decrease in atmospheric pressure. Atmospheric pressure is directly proportional to the height of the mercury column in a barometer. When the height decreases, it indicates that the pressure in the atmosphere is lower.


What is the tall column in which water and steam erupting from the earth's surface is called?

The tall column in which water and steam erupting from the earth's surface is called a geyser. Geysers are natural phenomena typically found in areas with volcanic activity, where underground water comes in contact with hot rocks and rises to the surface in a dramatic display.


How does the pressure at the bottom of a 76 cm column of mercury in a barometer compare with air pressure at the bottom of the atmosphere?

The pressure at the bottom of a 76 cm column of mercury in a barometer would be equal to the atmospheric pressure pushing down on the mercury column. This is because the height of the mercury column in a barometer is directly related to the atmospheric pressure. Thus, the pressure at the bottom of the mercury column would be the same as the air pressure at the bottom of the atmosphere.
