A tube of uniform bore of cross-sectional area ' AA ' has been set up vertically with open end facing up. Now ' MM ' gram of a liquid of density ' dd ' is poured into it. The column of liquid in this tube will oscillate with a period ' T ', which is equal to [ g=g = acceleration due to gravity]

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

  1. Treat it as a U-tube: displacing the liquid by xx makes a level difference 2x2x, restoring force 2Adgx2Adgx.
  2. T=2πM2AdgT = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{M}{2Adg}} (equivalently 2πL2g2\pi\sqrt{\frac{L}{2g}} with column length L=MAdL = \frac{M}{Ad}).
  3. So the answer is (b).
