A U-tube is almost half-filled with mercury. The wider limb has an area of cross-section of `2cm^(2)`, and the cross-section of the narrow limb is `1cm^(2)`. If `52cm^(3)` of water is poured into the wider limb, then what will be the depression of the mercury level in that limb? The density of mercury = `13.6g*cm^(-3)`.
