$A$ $U$-tube is such that the diameter of one limb is $0.4\,mm$ and that of the other is $d\,mm$. If the surface tension of water contained in the tube is $0.07\,N/m$ and the difference in the levels of liquid in the limbs is $3.6\,cm$,then the value of $d$ is:

  • A
    $1.6 \times 10^{-3}\,m$
  • B
    $0.4 \times 10^{-3}\,m$
  • C
    $8 \times 10^{-3}\,m$
  • D
    $4 \times 10^{-3}\,m$
