  • A
    $10.4\,\pi \,mN$
  • B

$A$ 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 $kg$):

Two long capillary tubes $A$ and $B$ of radius $R_B > R_A$ are dipped in the same liquid. Then:

Water rises to a height of $2 \,cm$ in a capillary tube. If the cross-sectional area of the tube is reduced to $\frac{1}{16}^{\text{th}}$ of the initial area, then water will rise to a height of: (in $\,cm$)

When one end of a capillary tube is dipped in water,the height of the water column is $h$. The upward force of $108 \ dyne$ due to surface tension is balanced by the force due to the weight of the water column. What is the inner circumference of the capillary (in $cm$)? (Surface tension of water $T = 7.2 \times 10^{-2} \ N/m$)

Fill in the blanks:
$(i)$ Smaller the radius of the capillary tube,...... the height of the column. ( more / less )
$(ii)$ If the meniscus is convex,then the liquid .......... in the capillary,and if it is concave,then the liquid .......... in the capillary. ( depressed / rises up )
