Glycerin (specific gravity = 1.26) is added to a tank of water in such a way that the two fluids do
not mix. The depth of the water is 7 ft and the depth of the glycerin is 4 ft. If the pressure at the
top of the tank is one atmosphere, what is the pressure at the top? Which fluid is on top?
(c) Determine the height of the water at 60 "F will rise due to capillary action in a clean 0.25-inch
diameter tube. What will be the height if the diameter is reduced to 0.01 inch? Surface tension of
water at 60 °F is 5.03 x 10-03 1b/ft. Specific weight of water is 62.39 lb/ft'. Consider contact angle
as 0.
How high does the water rise due to the capillary effect in a 15 micrometer diameter pipe?

- I've posted the below question earlier, and I received the answer. This is the question: A J-shaped tube is filled with air at 760 Torr and 22 °C. The long arm is closed off at the top and is 100.0 cm long; the short arm is 40.00 cm high. Mercury is poured through a funnel into the open end. When the mercury spills over the top of the short arm, what is the pressure on the trapped air? Let h be the length of mercury in the long arm. I need further explanation of one step: - when P2 is obtained in the short arm, the equation is 40-h+P1 1. How did we get this equation? 2. the short arm does not contain any air, why do we create an equation of P2 in the short arm?
