Given below are two statements:
$Statement$ $I$: If a capillary tube is immersed first in cold water and then in hot water,the height of capillary rise will be smaller in hot water.
$Statement$ $II$: If a capillary tube is immersed first in cold water and then in hot water,the height of capillary rise will be smaller in cold water.
In the light of the above statements,choose the most appropriate from the options given below:

  • A
    Both $Statement$ $I$ and $Statement$ $II$ are true.
  • B
    Both $Statement$ $I$ and $Statement$ $II$ are false.
  • C
    $Statement$ $I$ is true but $Statement$ $II$ is false.
  • D
    $Statement$ $I$ is false but $Statement$ $II$ is true.

Water rises in a capillary tube up to a height of $4 \, cm$. If it is tilted to $30^{\circ}$ from the vertical,then the length of the water column in it will be

One end of a capillary tube is dipped in water,the rise of water column is $h$. The upward force of $98 \text{ dyne}$ due to surface tension is balanced by the force due to the weight of the water column. The inner circumference of the capillary is (surface tension of water $= 7 \times 10^{-2} \text{ Nm}^{-1}$) (in $\text{ cm}$)

The sap in a tree rises in a system of capillaries of radius $2.5 \times 10^{-5} \, m$. The surface tension of the sap is $7.28 \times 10^{-2} \, N \, m^{-1}$ and the angle of contact is $0^{\circ}$. The maximum height to which the sap can rise in a tree through capillarity action is ...... $m$ (take $\rho_{sap} = 10^3 \, kg \, m^{-3}$ and $g = 9.8 \, m \, s^{-2}$).

When a capillary is dipped in water,water rises to a height $h$. If the length of the capillary is made less than $h$,then

$A$ capillary tube of radius $r$ is immersed in water and water rises in it to a height $h$. The mass of the water in the capillary tube is $m$. Another capillary of radius $2r$ is immersed in water. The mass of water that will rise in this tube is
