A uniform tube closed at aone end, contains a pellet of mercury 10cm long. When the tube is lept vertically with the closed-end upward, the length of the air column trapped is 20cm. Find the length of the air column trapped when the tube is inverted so that the closed-end goes down. Atmospheric pressure =75cm of mercury.
