A U-tube of 2.5 mm inside diameter and 900 mm length has one end closed. The other end is connected to a funnel of height 50 mm. Mercury is poured into the funnel to trap air in the tube. If trapped air is compressed isothermally, what is height to which mercury will go inside U-tube and then starts to spill over the funnel? (Neglect capillary effects).
