Density of water is ρ w and density of mercury ρ Hg . The valve is opened. Then which of the following is/are true-

Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
CHECK THE SOLUTION.
(a, b, c)
ρ Hg > ρ W

P A = P B
⇒ ρ w g h w + ρ Hg g H = ρ Hg g (1 – H)
⇒ H = 
P A = P B = ρ Hg g (1 – H) = ρ Hg
g
= g 
1 – H = 1 –
=
