A manufacturer wants to produce crude benzene models for the chemistry department. The manufacturer plans to do this by punching regular hexagons out of steel; such that edge length and thickness are in ratio 1000 : 1 . Steel ruptures at shear stress greater than 4×108 N m-2. If total shearing force applied is 6×105 N, then find maximum value of thickness of the hexagonal plane (in μm )

A U-tube in which the cross-sectional area of the limb on the left is one-quarter of the limb on the right contains mercury (density 13.6 g cm-3). The level of mercury in the narrow limb is at a distance of 36 cm from the upper end of the tube. If the rise in the level of mercury from its original level in the right limb if the left limb is filled to the top with water is x cm, what is the value of 100x?
