What is an example of torricelli's principle?

An example of Torricelli's principle is when you use a barometer to measure atmospheric pressure. The height of the mercury column in the tube of a barometer is determined by the atmospheric pressure pushing down on the mercury in the dish. This is in accordance with Torricelli's principle, which states that the height of a liquid in a tube is inversely proportional to the pressure acting on it.
