  • A
    $5 \times 10^{-3} \ N/m$
  • B
    $5 \times 10^{-2} \ N/m$
  • C
    $5 \ N/m$
  • D

$A$ capillary tube is immersed vertically in water,and the water rises to a height $h_1$ on the Earth's surface. When this arrangement is taken into a mine of depth $d$ below the Earth's surface,the height of the water column is $h_2$. If $R$ is the radius of the Earth,the ratio $\frac{h_2}{h_1}$ is:

The radius of the bore of a capillary tube is $r$ and the angle of contact of the liquid is $\theta$. When the tube is dipped in the liquid,the radius of curvature of the meniscus of liquid rising in the tube is

$A$ glass capillary tube is in the shape of a truncated cone with an apex angle $\alpha$ so that its two ends have cross sections of different radii. When dipped in water vertically,water rises in it to a height $h$,where the radius of its cross section is $b$. If the surface tension of water is $S$,its density is $\rho$,and its contact angle with glass is $\theta$,the value of $h$ will be ($g$ is the acceleration due to gravity).

Water rises in a capillary tube to a certain height such that the upward force due to surface tension is balanced by $75 \times 10^{-4} \, N$ force due to the weight of the liquid. If the surface tension of water is $6 \times 10^{-2} \, N m^{-1}$,the inner circumference of the capillary must be

In a vessel, equal masses of alcohol (specific gravity $0.8$) and water are mixed together. A capillary tube of radius $1 \, mm$ is dipped vertically in it. If the mixture rises to a height of $5 \, cm$ in the capillary tube, the surface tension of the mixture is ....... $dyne/cm$.
