Q-8. A vertical clean glass tube of uniform bore is to be used as a piezometer for measuring pressure of a liquid at a point. The liquid has a mass density of 1425 kg/m3 and a surface tension of 0.06 N/m in contact with air. If the capillary rise in the tube is not to exceed 2.0 mm, the required minimum diameter of the tube is in mm? [Take angle of contact with glass is zero ]
