A narrow uniform glass tube 80 cm long and open at both ends is half immersed in mercurry. Then the top of the tube is closed and it is taken out of mercury. A column of mercury 22 cm long then remains in the tube. What is the atmospheric pressure?

A tube 1.5 m long and closed at on end is half filled with mercry and is then inverted with its open ends just dipping into a mercury tough.Find the height of mercury in the tube if the reading of the barometer is 0.75 m.

A U shaped tube has two arms of equal cross section and lengths l_(1) = 80 cm and l_(2) = 40 cm. The open ends are sealed with air in the tube at a pressure of 80 cm of mercury. Some mercury is now introduced in the tube through a stopcock connected at the bottom (the air is not allowed to leak out). In steady condition the length of mercury column in the shorter arm was found to be 10 cm. Find the length of the mercury column in the longer arm. Neglect the volume of the part of the tube connecting two arms and assume that the temperature is constant.

A small capillry tube of length 100cm closed at one end is kept horizontally and a mercury column of length 10cm is exactly in the middle. If the atmospheric pressure is 1 atm then identify the correct option(s).

A narrow uniform glass tube contains air enclosed by 15 cm long thread of mercury. When the tube is vertical with open end uppermost, the air column is 30 cm long. When the tube is inverted, the length of air column becomes 45 cm. Calculate the atmospheric pressure.

A barometer tube is inclined at an angle of 30^@ with horizontal direction. Calculate length of mercury column in tube if atmospheric pressure is 76 cm of mercury.

If the end correction of an open tube is 0.3 cm, then the diameter of the tube will be

Air column of 20cm length in a resonance tube resonates with a certain tuning fork when sounded at its upper open end. The lower end of the tube is closed and adjustable by changing the quantity of mercury filled inside the tube. The temperature of the air is 27^(@)C . The change in length of the air column required, if the temperature falls to 7^(@)C and the same tuning fork is again sounded at the upper open end is nearly
