There is water up to a height of 10 cm in a closed container, and compressed gas is above the water. A manometer is connected to the container as shown in the figure below. The manometer tube is open at the top. The water reaches a height of 60 cm in the manometer tube. What is the pressure of the gas in the container? The air pressure is 1 bar, and the density of water is .
