JEE Advanced · Physics · 11. Properties of Fluids

An incompressible liquid is kept in a container having a weightless piston with a hole. A capillary tube of inner radius 0.1mm is dipped vertically into the liquid through the airtight piston hole, as shown in the figure. The air in the container is isothermally compressed from its original volume V0to100101V0with the movable piston.Considering air as an ideal gas, the height h of the liquid column in the capillary above the liquid level in cmis _____.
[Given: Surface tension of the liquid is 0.075Nm1, atmospheric pressure is 105Nm2, acceleration due to gravity g is 10ms2, density of the liquid is 103kgm3and contact angle of capillary surface with the liquid is zero]
