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

$A$ vertical capillary tube is filled with water up to the top after closing its lower end with a finger. If the finger is removed,we shall observe that: ($T = 70 \,\, dyne/cm$,radius of capillary $r = 1 \,\, mm$ and $g = 980 \,\, cm/sec^2$)

Two capillary tubes of length $L$ and $2L$ and of radius $R$ and $2R$ are connected in series. The net rate of flow of fluid through them will be (given rate of flow through a single capillary,$X = \frac{\pi P R^4}{8 \eta L}$)

Two capillary tubes $A$ and $B$ of the same internal diameter are kept vertically in two different liquids whose densities are in the ratio $4:3$. If the surface tensions of these two liquids are in the ratio $6:5$,then the ratio of rise of liquid in capillary $A$ to that in $B$ is (assume their angles of contact are nearly equal).

$A$ capillary tube of radius $R$ is dipped in water,and water rises to a height $H$. The mass of water in the capillary tube is $M$. If a capillary tube of half the radius is dipped in water,what will be the mass of the water in the capillary tube?
