This question has Statement-$I$ and Statement-$II$. Of the four choices given after the statements,choose the one that best describes the two statements.
Statement-$I$: $A$ capillary is dipped in a liquid and liquid rises to a height $h$ in it. As the temperature of the liquid is raised,the height $h$ increases (if the density of the liquid and the angle of contact remain the same).
Statement-$II$: Surface tension of a liquid decreases with the rise in its temperature.

  • A
    Statement-$I$ is true,Statement-$II$ is true; Statement-$II$ is not the correct explanation for Statement-$I$.
  • B
    Statement-$I$ is false,Statement-$II$ is true.
  • C
    Statement-$I$ is true,Statement-$II$ is false.
  • D
    Statement-$I$ is true,Statement-$II$ is true; Statement-$II$ is the correct explanation for Statement-$I$.

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 $g = 9.8 \, m \, s^{-2}$).

In a $U$-shaped tube,the radius of one limb is $2 \ mm$ and that of the other limb is $4 \ mm$. $A$ liquid of surface tension $0.03 \ Nm^{-1}$,density $1500 \ kgm^{-3}$,and angle of contact zero is taken in the tube. The difference in the heights of the levels of the liquid in the two limbs is (Acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \ ms^{-2}$) (in $mm$)
