An ideal gas is trapped between a mercury column and the closed-end of a narrow vertical tube of uniform base containing the column. The upper end of the tube is open to the atmosphere. The atmospheric pressure equals `76cm` of mercury. The lenghts of the mercury column and the trapped air column are `20cm` and `43cm` respectively. What will be the length of the air column when the tube is tilted slowly in a vertical plane through an angle of `60^(@)`? Assume the temperature to remain constant.

An ideal gas is trapped between a mercury column and the closed lower end of a narrow vertical tube of uniform bore. The upper end of the tube is open to atmosphere (atmospheric pressure = 76 cm of Hg). The length of mercury and the trapped gas columns are 20 cm and 43 cm respectively. What will be the length of the gas column when the tube is titled slowly at constant temperature in a vertical plane through an angle of 60^(@) ?

In given figure, an ideal gas is trapped between a mercury column and the closed end of a uniform vertical tube. The upper end of the tube is open to the atmosphere. Initially the lengths of the mercury column and the trapped air colume are 12 cm and 50cm respectively. when the tube is titted solwly in a vertical plane through an angle of 30^(@) with horizontal then the new length of air colume is (x)/(41)m . Find x . Assuming the temperature to remains constant. (P_(atm) = 76 cm of Hg)
