When a capillary tube is dipped into two liquids having relative densities $0.8$ and $0.6$ and surface tensions $60 \, dyne/cm$ and $50 \, dyne/cm$ respectively,the ratio of the heights of the liquids in the capillary tube $\frac{h_1}{h_2}$ is:

  • A
    $\frac{10}{9}$
  • B
    $\frac{3}{10}$
  • C
    $\frac{10}{3}$
  • D
    $\frac{9}{10}$

Water rises to a height of $2\, cm$ in a capillary tube. If the tube is tilted $60^{\circ}$ from the vertical,water will rise in the tube to a length of ...... $cm$.

$A$ capillary tube is immersed vertically in water and the height of the water column is $x$. When this arrangement is taken into a mine of depth $d$,the height of the water column is $y$. If $R$ is the radius of earth,the ratio $\frac{x}{y}$ is

When one end of a capillary tube is dipped in water,the height of water column is $h$. The upward force of $105 \text{ dyne}$ due to surface tension is balanced by the force due to the weight of water column. The inner circumference of the capillary tube is (Surface tension of water $= 7 \times 10^{-2} \text{ N/m}$) (in $\text{ cm}$)

Liquid $A$ rises to a height of $10 \ cm$ in a capillary tube and liquid $B$ falls to a depth of $2 \ cm$ in the same tube. The densities of $A$ and $B$ are $1 \ g/cm^3$ and $10 \ g/cm^3$ respectively. The contact angles of $A$ and $B$ with the tube are $0^{\circ}$ and $135^{\circ}$ respectively. If the surface tensions of $A$ and $B$ are $S_A$ and $S_B$, then the ratio $\frac{S_B}{S_A}$ is:

When a part of a straight capillary tube is placed vertically in a liquid, the liquid rises up to a certain height $h$. If the inner radius of the capillary tube, density of the liquid, and surface tension of the liquid decrease by $1\%$ each, then the height of the liquid in the tube will change by . . . . . . $\%$.
