The Answer is Height of the colder Barometer, now equal in Temperature to the warmer: (rejecting all but the four first Decimals.)
6th Step.
397. 6th Step. Place the Barometers now of the same Temperature, i. e. equal to the warmer, in one View, thus:
| 1st. the upper Barometer, | 24.1892 |
| 2d. the lower Barometer, | 28.1328 |
The 7th Step applied in the second Example.
7th Step.
398. Find the Height, in Feet, in the 2d Column of the 2d Table, corresponding to Inches and Tenths of the upper barometric Tube, in the 1st. Column of the same Table, thus: ([Sect. 371].)
The Barometer standing at 24.1892; it must be considered where, in the 2d Column of the 2d Table, a Height corresponding to such Inches and Tenths can lie: and the Answer is, somewhere above 24 Inches .1 Tenth, but not so high as 24 Inches .2 Tenths: 24 Inches .1892 Tenths, being more than 24 Inches .1 Tenth, but less than 24 Inches .2 Tenths.
First then, look in the 1st Column for Inches 24, .1 Tenth; and the corresponding Height in Feet is 7388.0: but the Height for 24, .2, in the 2d Column, beneath the former Number, is only 7280.1.
