Mercury is poured into a U-tube as shown in Figure next. The left arm of the tube has a cross section of area  A1 of 10.0 cm2 , and the right arm has a cross section of Area A2 of 5, 00 cm2 . Then one hundred grams (100 gr) of water are poured into the right arm as shown in Figure. (a) Determine the length of the column of water in the right arm of the U-tube. (b) Given that the density of mercury is 13.6 g / cm3 , How far h does the mercury go up in the left arm?
