Water rises to height $h$ in a capillary tube. If the length of the capillary tube above the surface of water is made less than $h$,then

$A$ 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 narrow bores of diameters $3.0 \;mm$ and $6.0 \;mm$ are joined together to form a $U$-tube open at both ends. If the $U$-tube contains water,what is the difference (in $mm$) in its levels in the two limbs of the tube? Surface tension of water at the temperature of the experiment is $7.3 \times 10^{-2} \;N m^{-1}$. Take the angle of contact to be zero and density of water to be $1.0 \times 10^{3} \;kg m^{-3}$ $(g = 9.8 \;m s^{-2})$.

Two capillary tubes $P$ and $Q$ are dipped in water. The height of the water level in capillary $P$ is $2/3$ of the height in capillary $Q$. The ratio of their diameters is:

The angle of contact between glass and water is $0^\circ$ and it rises in a capillary up to $6 \text{ cm}$ when its surface tension is $70 \text{ dynes/cm}$. Another liquid of surface tension $140 \text{ dynes/cm}$,angle of contact $60^\circ$ and relative density $2$ will rise in the same capillary by ........ $\text{cm}$.
