A sealed vertical cylinder of radius R and height h = 0.60 m is initially filled halfway with water, and the upper half is filled with air. The air is initially at standard atmospheric pressure, p0 = 1.01 • 105 Pa. A small valve at the bottom of the cylinder is opened, and water flows out of the cylinder until the reduced pressure of the air in the upper part of the cylinder prevents any further water from escaping. By what distance is the depth of the water lowered? (Assume that the temperature of water and air do not change and that no air leaks into the cylinder.)
