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. . . . . . .
