Given a one meter long glass tube closed at one end having a uniform cross-section containing a mercury column of 10 cm length, at a distance of 39 cm from the closed end. By what distance would this column move down, if the tube is held vertically with the open end downwards. [Take atmospheric pressure to be 78 cm of Hg.]
