Determine how much will the mercury rise

Reference no: EM13539662

A mercury thermometer has a bulb of volume 0.100 cm3 at 10oC. The capillary tube above the bulb has a cross-sectional area of 0.012 mm2. The volume thermal expansion coefficient of mercury is 1.8X10-4 (oC)-1. How much will the mercury rise when the temperature rises by 30oC?
