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.

If a capillary experiment is performed in a vacuum,what happens to the liquid level in the capillary tube?

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

$A$ capillary tube of radius '$r$' is immersed in water and water rises to a height of '$h$'. The mass of water in the capillary tube is $5 \times 10^{-3} \ kg$. The same capillary tube is now immersed in a liquid whose surface tension is $\sqrt{2}$ times the surface tension of water. The angle of contact between the capillary tube and this liquid is $45^{\circ}$. The mass of liquid which rises into the capillary tube now is (in $kg$):

In a capillary tube experiment,a vertical $20 \,cm$ long capillary tube is dipped in water. The water rises up to a height of $8 \,cm$ due to capillary action. If this experiment is conducted in a freely falling elevator,the length of the water column becomes ....... $cm$.
