A 10 cm column of air is trapped by a column of mercury, 8 cm long, in a capillary tube horizantally fixed as shown below, at 1 atm pressure. When the tube is held at certain angle `theta^(@)` , with open end up, the weight of Hg is borne partially by the gas. Vertical Height of Hg is a measure of additional pressure on gas:

The length of air coloumn.when the tube is fixed vertically with opend end up at same temperature is
