Question:
Suppose you have a cylindrical glass tube with a thin capillary opening, and you wish to determine the diameter of the opening. You can do this experimentally by weighing a piece of the tubing before and after filling a portion of the capillary with mercury. Using the following information, calculate the diameter of the opening.
Mass of tube before adding mercury = 3.263 g
Mass of tube after adding mercury = 3.416 g
Length of capillary filled with mercury = 16.75 mm Density of mercury = 13.546 g/cm3
Volume of cylindrical capillary filled with mercury = (π)(radius)2(length)
