The lower end of a capillary tube of diameter 2.00mm is dipped 8.00cm below the surface of water in a beaker. What is the pressure required in the tube in order to blow a hemispherical bubble at its end in water? The surface tension of water at temperature of the experiments is 7.30 times 10^2 Nm^-1 .1 atmospheric pressure =1.01 times 10^5 Pa density of water =1000 kg//m^3,g=9.80 ms^-2 . Also calculate the excess pressure.

A faulty barometer tube is 90 cm long and it contains some air above mercury. The reading is 74.5 cm when the true atmospheric pressure is 76 cm. What will be the true atmospheric pressure if the reading on this barometer is 74 cm? (H = 10m of water column)
