Water rises in a capillary tube of radius $r$ up to a height $h$. The mass of water in the capillary is $m$. The mass of water that will rise in a capillary of radius $r/3$ will be:

  • A
    $m$
  • B
    $m/3$
  • C

$A$ glass capillary tube of inner diameter $0.28 \,mm$ is lowered vertically into water in a vessel. The pressure to be applied on the water in the capillary tube so that the water level in the tube is the same as that in the vessel is ............ $\times 10^3 \,N/m^2$ (surface tension of water $= 0.07 \,N/m$ and atmospheric pressure $= 10^5 \,N/m^2$).

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

Water rises to a height $3$ cm in a capillary tube. If the cross-sectional area of the capillary tube is reduced to $1/3^{rd}$ of its initial area, then water will rise to a height of:

Two capillaries made of the same material but of different radii are dipped in a liquid. The rise of liquid in one capillary is $2.2 \ cm$ and that in the other is $6.6 \ cm$. The ratio of their radii is

Water rises to a height of $10 \ cm$ in a certain capillary tube. Another identical tube when dipped in mercury,the level of mercury is depressed by $3.42 \ cm$. The density of mercury is $13.6 \ g/cc$. The angle of contact for water in contact with glass is $0^o$ and for mercury in contact with glass is $135^o$. The ratio of the surface tension of water to that of $Hg$ is:
