Water rises up to $10 \, cm$ height in a long capillary tube. If this tube is immersed in water so that the height above the water surface is only $8 \, cm$,then:

When a capillary tube of radius '$r$' is immersed in water, the rise of water is up to height '$h$'. The mass of water in the capillary tube is '$m$'. When another capillary tube of radius '$xr$' is immersed in water, the mass of water that will rise in this tube is:

Two tubes of same length and diameters $4 \ mm$ and $8 \ mm$ are joined together to form a $U$-shaped tube open at both the ends. If the $U$-tube contains water,then the difference between the levels of water in the two limbs of the tube is (Surface tension of water at the temperature of experiment is $7.3 \times 10^{-2} \ N \ m^{-1}$,angle of contact $= 0^{\circ}$,density of water $= 1.0 \times 10^3 \ kg \ m^{-3}$ and acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \ m \ s^{-2}$) (in $mm$)

$A$ $U$-tube with limbs of diameters $5\, mm$ and $2\, mm$ contains water of surface tension $7 \times 10^{-2} \, N/m$. The angle of contact is zero and the density of water is $10^3 \, kg/m^3$. If $g = 10 \, m/s^2$,then the difference in the liquid levels of the two limbs is:

The radii of the two columns in a $U$ tube are $r_1$ and $r_2$. When a liquid of density $\rho$ (angle of contact is $0^o$) is filled in it,the level difference of liquid in the two arms is $h$. The surface tension of the liquid is ($g =$ acceleration due to gravity):
