A person inverts a heavy cylindrical glass above the surface of a swimming pool. The glass is then inserted down to a depth of 12-ft inside the pool. The air within the glass has the temperature same as that of the atmosphere. While inserting the glass, water is filled within the glass upto a certain height Ah. Find this Ah height. Hint: Due to the change in pressure, account for the change in volume of air in the glass. The atmospheric pressure is Patm = 14.7 psi. Give all results in BG units.
