A vertical U-tube of uniform cross-section contains water upto a height of 30 cm. show that if the water in one limb is depressed and then released, its up and down motion in the two limbs of the tube is simple harmonic and calculate its time-period.

The capillary tube is dipped in water vertically it is sufficiently long so that water rises to maximum height h in the tube te length of the portion immersed in water is lgth . The lower end of the tube is closed the tube is taken out and opened again then find length of the water column remaining in the tube.

A cylindrical vessel of height 500mm has an orifice (small hole) at its bottom. The orifice is initially closed and water is filled in it up to height H. Now the top is completely sealed with a cap and the orifice at the bottom is opened. Some water comes out from the orifice and the water level in the vessel becomes steady with height of water column being 200mm. Find the fall in height(in mm) of water level due to opening of the orifice. [Take atmospheric pressure =1.0xx10^5N//m^2 , density of water=1000kg//m^3 and g=10m//s^2 . Neglect any effect of surface tension.]
