Three simple harmonic motions of equal amplitudes $A$ and equal time periods in the same direction combine. The phase of the second motion is $60^o$ ahead of the first and the phase of the third motion is $60^o$ ahead of the second. Find the amplitude of the resultant motion
A capillary tube made of glass of radius $0.15\, mm$ is dipped vertically in a beaker filled with methylene iodide (surface tension $=0.05\, Nm ^{-1},$ density $\left.=667\, kg m ^{-3}\right)$ which rises to height $h$ in the tube. It is observed that the two tangents drawn from liquid-glass interfaces (from opp. sides of the capillary) make an angle of $60^{\circ}$ with one another. Then $h$ is close to $......m$
