A thin tube sealed at both ends is $\displaystyle 100$ cm long. It lies horizontally, the middle $\displaystyle 20$ cm containing mercury and two equal ends containing air at standard atmospheric pressure. If the tube is now turned to a vertical position, by what amount will the mercury be displaced ?
(Given : cross section of the tube can be assumed to be uniform)
Official answer
(2)
5.$\displaystyle 18$ cm
