Solution

The maximum height to which a liquid can be drunk through a straw is determined by the atmospheric pressure. The maximum height is given by the equation:

h = P / (ρg)

where:

  • P is the atmospheric pressure, which is approximately 101325 Pa,
  • ρ is the density of the liquid, and
  • g is the acceleration due to gravity, which is approximately 9.81 m/s².

Given that the density of the liquid is 1200 kg/m³, we can substitute the known values into the equation to find the maximum height:

h = 101325 / (1200 * 9.81) ≈ 8.6 m

So, the maximum height to which this liquid can be drunk through a straw is approximately 8.6 m. Therefore, the correct answer is 8.6 m.
