This question has Statement-$I$ and Statement-$II$. Of the four choices given after the statements,choose the one that best describes the two statements.
Statement-$I$: $A$ capillary is dipped in a liquid and liquid rises to a height $h$ in it. As the temperature of the liquid is raised,the height $h$ increases (if the density of the liquid and the angle of contact remain the same).
Statement-$II$: Surface tension of a liquid decreases with the rise in its temperature.

  • A
    Statement-$I$ is true,Statement-$II$ is true; Statement-$II$ is not the correct explanation for Statement-$I$.
  • B
    Statement-$I$ is false,Statement-$II$ is true.
  • C
    Statement-$I$ is true,Statement-$II$ is false.
  • D
    Statement-$I$ is true,Statement-$II$ is true; Statement-$II$ is the correct explanation for Statement-$I$.

In a capillary rise experiment,the water level rises to a height of $5\, cm$. If the same capillary tube is placed in water such that only $3\, cm$ of the tube projects outside the water level,then

The ratio of surface tensions of mercury and water is given to be $7.5$ while the ratio of their densities is $13.6$. Their contact angles with glass are close to $135^o$ and $0^o$,respectively. It is observed that mercury gets depressed by an amount $h$ in a capillary tube of radius $r_1$,while water rises by the same amount $h$ in a capillary tube of radius $r_2$. The ratio $(r_1/r_2)$ is then close to:

Water rises up to a height $h$ in a capillary tube on the surface of the Earth in a stationary condition. The value of $h$ increases if this tube is taken:

By inserting a capillary tube up to a depth $l$ in water,the water rises to a height $h$. If the lower end of the capillary is closed inside water,the capillary is taken out,and then the closed end is opened,to what height will the water remain in the tube?

Water rises in a capillary tube up to a height $h$. If this capillary tube is tilted by an angle of $45^o$,then the length of the water column in the capillary tube becomes
