Two narrow bores of diameter \(5.0\, {mm}\) and \(8.0\, {mm}\) are joined together to form a \(U-\)shaped tube open at both ends. If this \({U}\)-tube contains water, what is the difference in the level of two limbs of the tube. [Take surface tension of water \({T}=7.3 \times 10^{-2} \, {Nm}^{-1}\), angle of contact \(=0, {g}=10\, {ms}^{-2}\) and density of water \(\left.=1.0 \times 10^{3} \,{kg} \,{m}^{-3}\right]\) (in \(mm\))
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(2.19\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
We have \(P_{A}=P_{B}\). [Points \(A\) \(\&\) \(B\) at same horizontal level]
\(\therefore \mathrm{P}_{\mathrm{atm}}-\frac{2 \mathrm{~T}}{\mathrm{r}_{1}}+\rho \mathrm{g}(\mathrm{x}+\Delta \mathrm{h})=\mathrm{P}_{2 \mathrm{tm}}-\frac{2 \mathrm{~T}}{\mathrm{r}_{2}}+\rho g \mathrm{x}\)
\(\therefore \rho g \Delta \mathrm{h}=2 \mathrm{~T}\left[\frac{1}{\mathrm{r}_{1}}-\frac{1}{\mathrm{I}_{2}}\right]\)
\(=2 \times 7.3 \times 10^{-2}\left[\frac{1}{2.5 \times 10^{-3}}-\frac{1}{4 \times 10^{-3}}\right]\)
\(\therefore \Delta \mathrm{h}=\frac{2 \times 7.3 \times 10^{-2} \times 10^{3}}{10^{3} \times 10}\left[\frac{1}{2.5}-\frac{1}{4}\right]\)
\(=2.19 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~m}=2.19 \mathrm{~mm}\)
