Q. A U-tube having horizontal arm of length 20 cm, has uniform cross-sectional area = 1 sq. cm. It is filled with water of volume 60 cc. What volume of a liquid of density 4 g/cc should be poured from one side into the U-tube so that no water is left in the horizontal arm of the tube?
A. 60 cc
B. 45 cc
C. 50 cc
D. 35 cc


Dear Student,
                      According to question Pressure in water arm=pressure in liquid ( density 4g/cc) arm60×1×g=h×4×gh=15cmso volume of  liquid =(20+15)cc=35cc
