A glass tube 1.60m long and having a diameter of 2.5cm is inserted vertically into a tank of oil (specific gravity 0.80) with the open end down and the closed end uppermost. If the open end is submerged 1.30m from the oil surface, determine the height to which the oil will rise in the tube. Assume barometric pressure is 100 kPa and neglect vapor pressure.
