Practice question

h = 2Scos⁡θρga. S = 0.0727N/m, ρ = 1000kg/m3, g = 10m/s2, a = 0.3×10−3m. h = 2×0.0727×11000×10×0.3×10−3 = 0.04847m = 4.85cm. As per NCERT, applying relevant law/formula with correct units and sign convention leads to 4.8 cm. This satisfies dimensional consistency and physical conditions given, so option B is scientifically correct.
