Mercury has an angle of contact equal to $140^{\circ}$ with soda lime glass. $A$ narrow tube of radius $1.00 \; mm$ made of this glass is dipped in a trough containing mercury. By what amount does the mercury dip down (in $mm$) in the tube relative to the liquid surface outside? Surface tension of mercury at the temperature of the experiment is $0.465 \; N m^{-1}$. Density of mercury $= 13.6 \times 10^{3} \; kg m^{-3}$.

Two capillary tubes of the same diameter are kept vertically in two different liquids whose densities are in the ratio $4:3$. The rise of liquid in two capillaries is $h_1$ and $h_2$ respectively. If the surface tensions of liquids are in the ratio $6:5$,the ratio of heights $\left(\frac{h_1}{h_2}\right)$ is (Assume that their angles of contact are same).

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 $T = 7.2 \times 10^{-2} \ N/m$)

Water rises to a height $h$ in a capillary tube at the surface of the Earth. On the surface of the moon,the height of the water column in the same capillary tube will be:

Water rises up to a height $h$ in a capillary tube on the surface of the earth. The value of $h$ will increase if the experimental setup is kept in:
