    $r > \left(\frac{3}{2} \frac{R \sigma}{\rho g}\right)^{1/3}$
  • B
    $r = \frac{2}{3} \frac{\sigma}{\rho g}$
  • C
    $\frac{2 \sigma}{r} > \text{atmospheric pressure}$

$A$ $U$-tube has a left limb with a cross-sectional area one-quarter that of the right limb. The tube contains mercury (density $13.6 \text{ g/cm}^3$). The level of mercury in the narrow (left) limb is at a distance of $36 \text{ cm}$ from the upper end of the tube. What will be the rise in the level of mercury in the right limb if the left limb is filled to the top with water (in $\text{ cm}$)? (Density of water = $1 \text{ g/cm}^3$)
