The cross-sectional area and length of each arm of a U-tube are `1cm^(2)` and 33 cm respectively. Mercury is poured into it up to a height of 6.8 cm in each arm. Now water is poured into one of the arms to fill it completely. If the density of mercury is `13.6g*cm^(-3)`, then determine the volume of water poured into it.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
