In a surface tension experiment with a capillary tube,water rises up to $0.1\, m$. If the same experiment is repeated on an artificial satellite,which is revolving around the Earth,water will rise in the capillary tube up to a height of:

  • A
    $0.1\, m$
  • B
    $0.2\, m$
  • C
    $0.98\, m$
  • D
    Full length of the capillary tube

Two capillary tubes $A$ and $B$ of the same internal diameter are kept vertically in two different liquids whose densities are in the ratio $4:3$. If the surface tensions of these two liquids are in the ratio $6:5$,then the ratio of rise of liquid in capillary $A$ to that in $B$ is (assume their angles of contact are nearly equal).

In an experiment to find the surface tension of mercury with the help of the capillary rise method,the liquid column in the capillary will:

$A$ $U$-tube with limbs of diameters $5\, mm$ and $2\, mm$ contains water of surface tension $7 \times 10^{-2} \, N/m$. The angle of contact is zero and the density of water is $10^3 \, kg/m^3$. If $g = 10 \, m/s^2$,then the difference in the liquid levels of the two limbs is:
