$0.3\,{\ell ^3}\,{\rho _\omega } = {\ell ^3}\rho $

$\rho  = 300\frac{{kg}}{{{m^3}}}$

$m + {\ell ^3}\rho  = {\ell ^3}{\rho _\omega }$

$M = {\ell ^3}\left( {{\rho _w} - \rho } \right) = {\left( 0.5 \right)^3}\left\{ {1000 - 300} \right\}$

$ = 700 \times {\left( 0.5 \right)^3}$

$ = 87.5\,kg$

    An incompressible liquid is kept in a container having a weightless piston with a hole. A capillary tube of inner radius $0.1 \mathrm{~mm}$ is dipped vertically into the liquid through the airtight piston hole, as shown in the figure. The air in the container is isothermally compressed from its original volume $V_0$ to $\frac{100}{101} V_0$ with the movable piston. Considering air as an ideal gas, the height $(h)$ of the liquid column in the capillary above the liquid level in $\mathrm{cm}$ is. . . . . . .
