Physics Kinetic Theory of Gases Ideal Gas Equation MCQ (Single Correct)

An ideal gas is trapped between a mercury column and the closed end of a narrow vertical tube of uniform base containing the column. The upper end of the tube is open to the atmosphere. The atmospheric pressure equals 76 cm of mercury. The lengths of the mercury column and the trapped air column are 20 cm and 43 cm respectively. What will be the length of the air column in cm when the tube is tilted slowly in a vertical plane through an angle of 60º? Assume the temperature to remain constant.
