The vertical height of mercury in a simple barometer is dependant on the area of cross-section of barometer tube.

If the above tube is kept in vertical position by how much length the mercury column descends ?

A barometer tube reads 76 cm of mercury. If the tube is gradually inclined at an angle of 60 with vertical, keeping the open end immersed in the mercury reservoir, the length of the mercury column will be

In given figure, an ideal gas is trapped between a mercury column and the closed end of a uniform vertical tube. The upper end of the tube is open to the atmosphere. Initially the lengths of the mercury column and the trapped air colume are 12 cm and 50cm respectively. when the tube is titted solwly in a vertical plane through an angle of 30^(@) with horizontal then the new length of air colume is (x)/(41)m . Find x . Assuming the temperature to remains constant. (P_(atm) = 76 cm of Hg)

A barometer tube reads 76 cm of Hg. If tube is : gradually inclined at an angle of 60^(@) with vertical, keeping the open end in the mercury reservoir, the length of mercury column will be

The mercury manometer consists if two unequal arms of equal cross section 1 cm^(2) and lenghths 100cm and 50cm. The two open ends are sealed with air in the tube at a pressure of 80cm of mercurey. Some amount of mercury is now introduced in the manometer through the stopcock connected to it. If mercury rises in the shorter tube to a lenght 10cm in steady state, find the length of the mercury column risen in the longer tube.

Water rises in a vertical capillary tube up to a length of 10 cm. If the tube is inclined at 45^@ , the length of water risen in the tube will be

Water rises to a height h in a capillary tube lowered vertically into water to a depth l as shown in the figure. The lower end of the tube is now closed, the tube is the taken out of the water and opened again. The length of the water column remaining in the tube will be .

A capillary tube is dipped in water to a depth and the water rises to a height h( lt l) in the capillary tube. The lower end of the tube is closed in water by putting a lower over it. The tube is now taken out and the thumb is removed from the lower end and it kept open. The length of liquid column in the tube will be

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.
