The surface tension of glacial acetic acid was determined using the 'bubble pressure' method in which the pressure needed to dislodge bubbles of air from the end of a capillary tube immersed in the liquid is measured. Given that the radius of the tube is , the depth of the tube in the liquid is the pressure is and density . Determine .
. Find (nearest integer value).
