To solve the problem of finding the exact pressure difference between the two limbs of a manometer with capillary tubes of different radii, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the setup We have two capillary tubes with radii \( r_1 \) (broader tube) and \( r_2 \) (narrower tube) where \( r_1 > r_2 \). The liquid level in the narrower tube is at a height \( h \) above that in the broader tube. ### Step 2: Define the pressures Let \( p_1 \) be the pressure in the broader tube and \( p_2 \) be the pressure in the narrower tube. The height difference \( h \) indicates that the pressure in the narrower tube is lower than that in the broader tube. ...
