Liquid $A$ rises to a height of $10 \ cm$ in a capillary tube and liquid $B$ falls to a depth of $2 \ cm$ in the same tube. The densities of $A$ and $B$ are $1 \ g/cm^3$ and $10 \ g/cm^3$ respectively. The contact angles of $A$ and $B$ with the tube are $0^{\circ}$ and $135^{\circ}$ respectively. If the surface tensions of $A$ and $B$ are $S_A$ and $S_B$,then the ratio $\frac{S_B}{S_A}$ is:

If the surface tension of water is $0.06 \, N/m$,then the capillary rise in a tube of diameter $1 \, mm$ is ....... $cm$ (assume $\theta = 0^\circ$,$g = 10 \, m/s^2$,and density of water $\rho = 1000 \, kg/m^3$).

$A$ uniform capillary tube of inner radius $r$ is dipped vertically into a beaker filled with water. The water rises to a height $h$ in the capillary tube above the water surface in the beaker.
