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 `65 mm` from its original level (see diagram). The density of the oil is

B

A U-tube is partially filled with water. Oil which does not mix with water is next poured into one side, until water rises by 25 cm on the other side. If the density of oil 0.8g//cm^(3) . The oil level will stand higher than the water by

A U-tube of uniform cross-sectional area and open to the atmosphere is partially filled with mercury. Water is then poured into both arms. If the equilibrium configuration of the tube is as shown in figure with h_(2)=1.0cm , determine the value of h_(1) .

A U-tube of uniform cross section (see figure) is partially filled with a liquid I. Another liquid II which does not mix with liquid I is poured into one side. It is found that the liquid levels of the two sides of the tube are the same, while the level of liquid I has risen by 2cm. If the specific gravity of liquid I is 1.1, the specific gravity of liquid II must be

In a resonace tube experiment, the first resonance is obtained when the level of the water in the tube is at 20 cm from the open end. Resonace will also be obtained when the distance of the water level from the open end is

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):

A U tube is first partially filled with mercury. Then water is added in one arm and an oil is added in the other arm. Find the ratio of water and oil columns so that mercury level is same in both the arms of U tube. Given : Density of water =10^(3)kg m^(-3) , density of oil =900kg m^(-3) .

An open U-tube contains mercury. When 11.2 cm of water is poured into one of the arms of the tube, how high does the mercury rise in the other arm from its initial level ?

An orifice of diameter 8 mm is made on one side of a tank in which water level is 10 mm above the orifice. What is the rate of discharge of water through the orifice?

A rectangular tank is placed on a horizontal ground and is filled with water to a height H above the base. A small hole is made on one vertical side at a depth D below the level of the water in the tank. The distance x from the bottom of the tank at which the water jet from the tank will hit the ground is

A U -tube in which the cross-sectional area of the limb on the left is one-third of the limb on the right contains mercury (density 13.6 g//cm^(3) ). The level of mercury in the narrow limb extends to a distance of 30 cm from the upper end of the tube. What will be the rise in the level of mercury in the right limb, if the left limb is filled to the top with water (neglect surface tension effects)?
