A vessel, whose bottom has round holes with diameter 0.1 mm is filled with water. The maximum height upto which water can be filled without leakage is (Surface tension = $75\ dyne\ cm^{- 1}$ and $g = 1000\ cms^{- 2}$)

(d) $hho g = \frac{2S}{r}$ or $h = \frac{2S}{rho g}$
$= \frac{2 	imes 75}{0.005 	imes 1 	imes 1000} = 30\ cm$
