By how much will the surface of a liquid...

By how much will the surface of a liquid be depressed in a glass tube of radius 0.2 mm if the angle of contact of the liquid is `135^(@)` and the surface tension is `0.547 Nm^(1)`? Density of the liquid is `13.5xx10^(3) kg m^(-3)`.
[ Hint: Neglecting the liquid in the meniscus we have for equilibrium `pi r_(2)h rho g=2pirT cos theta,h=(2T cos theta)/(rho g r)`]
