In a capillary tube experiment, a vertical $30 \text{ cm}$ long capillary tube is dipped in water. Water rises up to a height of $10 \text{ cm}$ due to capillarity. If this experiment is conducted in a freely falling elevator, then the length of the water column becomes

When two capillary tubes of different diameters are dipped vertically,the rise of the liquid 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 $\text{ cm}$)

The following observations were taken for determining surface tension $T$ of water by the capillary method:
Diameter of capillary,$D = 1.25 \times 10^{-2} \; m$
Rise of water,$h = 1.45 \times 10^{-2} \; m$
Using $g = 9.80 \; m/s^2$ and the simplified relation $T = \frac{rhg}{2} \times 10^3 \; N/m$,the possible error in surface tension is ........... $\%$. (Assume the least count of the measuring instrument is $0.01 \times 10^{-2} \; m$)

When a capillary tube is immersed in water vertically,water rises to a height $h$ inside the tube. If the radius of another capillary tube is $\frac{1}{3}$ that of the previous,the height to which water will rise in this tube is:
