Question
A container has two immiscible liquids of densities 
and 
. A capillary tube of radius r is inserted in the liquid so that its bottom reaches up to the denser liquid. The denser liquid rises in the capillary and attains a height h from the interface of the liquids, which is equal to the column length of the lighter liquid. Assuming angle of contact to be zero, the surface tension of heavier liquid is
The correct answer is:

In a U-tube in which the cross-sectional area of the limb on the left is one-quarter, the limb on the right contains mercury (density 13.6 g/cm3), and the level of mercury in the narrow limb is at a distance of 36 cm from the upper end of the tube. What will be the rise in the level of mercury in the right limb if the left limb is filled to the top with water?
