An open U -tube of uniform cross-section contains mercury. When 27.2 cm of water is poured into one limb of the tube, (a) how high does the mercury rise in the limb from its initial level ? (b) what is the difference in levels of liquids of the two sides ? (`rho_(w) =1` and `rho_(Hg) =13. 6` units)
