A U-tube with both ends open to the atmosphere is partially filled with water. Oil, which is immiscible with water. Is poured into one side until it stands at a distance of 10 mm above the water level on the other side. Meanwhile the water rises by 65mm from its original level (see diagram). The density of the oil is:

Two capillary tubes of diameters 3.0 mm and 6.0 mm are joined together to form a U -tube open at both ends. If the U -tube is filled with water, what is the difference in its levels in the two limbs of the tube ? Surface tension of water at the temperature of the experiment is 7.3xx10^(2)N//m . Take the angie of contact to be zero and density of water to be 10^(3)kg//m^(3) ( g=9.8m//s^(2) )

A capillary due sealed at the top has an internal radius of r = 0.05 cm . The tube is placed vertically in water, with its open end dipped in water. Find greatest interger corresponding to the length (in water) of such a tube be for the water in it to rise in these conditions to a height h = 1 cm ? The pressure The pressure of the air is P_(0) = 1 atm . = 7 cm of Hg , density of Hg = 13.6 //cm^(3) , g = 9.8 m//sec^(2) The surface tension of water is sigma = 70 "dyne"//"cm" . (assume temperature of air in the tube is constant)

If oil of density higher than water is used in place of water in a resonance tube how does the frequency change?

A tube with both ends open floats vertically in water. Oil with a density 800 kg/ m^3 is poured into the tube. The tube is filled with oil upto the top end while in equilibrium. The portion out of the water is of length 10 cm. The length of oil in the tube is 10 alpha cm . Find alpha (assume effect of surface tension is neglible):
