Ordinary mercury in glass thermometer is used for measuring temperature upto 120°C. However, for measuring higher temperature upto __________ °C, thermometer is made by filling nitrogen under pressure above the mercury, which stops the evaporation of mercury and reduces the chance of broken thread of mercury.
Capillary rise of mercury in a small diameter tube is proportional of (where, d = mercury of the rube, σ = surface tension of mercury)
The coefficient of volumetric expansion of mercury is 18×10-5/°C. The thermometer bulb has a volume of 10-6 m3 and cross-section of the stem is 0.002cm2. Assuming that bulb is filled with mercury at 0°C, the increase in length of the mercury column at 100°C will be ___________
Calculate the magnitude of capillary effect in millimeters in a glass tube of 7mm diameter, when immersed in mercury. The temperature of the liquid is 25℃ and the values of surface tension of mercury at 25℃ is 0.51 N/m. The angle of contact for mercury is 130°.
The right limb of a simple U-tube manometer containing mercury is open to the atmosphere while the lift limb is connected to a pipe in which a fluid of specific gravity 0.85 is flowing. The centre of the pipe is 14 cm below the level of mercury in the right limb.Evaluate the pressure of fluid flowing in the pipe if the difference of mercury level in the two limbs is 22 cm.
